ProEdit Japan - Translation

Translation

ProEdit Japan provides the highest quality of translation focused on accuracy and appropriateness. All translations are carried out by translators with ample experience in scientific work, and each order is quality controlled at multiple steps. Depending on the needs of our clients, we offer Scientific Translation and General Translation services. Scientific Translation is ideal for manuscripts intended for submission to academic journals, while General Translation is suitable for cover letters and rough draft translations.

Scientific Translation

We recommend this product for presentations, course materials, or if your manuscript is intended for journal submission.

The ProEdit Process

Scientific Translation orders involve several steps. Two translators are assigned to translate the Japanese manuscript into English in a two-stage process. The first translator creates the first draft of English translation, and the second translator checks the English translation. In this second stage, the translator checks for omissions and mistranslations. Additionally, revisions are made to the translation as necessary, when more suitable terms are available, and when the second draft of the English translation is ready. Next, a ProEditor provides scientific editing. Lastly, our Quality Assurance Division performs a quality check, and the final draft of Scientific Translation is ready.

Scientific Translation is ideal for:

Journal Submissions
Books
Surveys
Presentations
Grant Applications
Reply Letters

Japanese-English Glossary of Technical Terms

Our translators research technical terms in any given manuscript extensively as they work to translate, but we ask our clients to provide us with a Japanese-English glossary of technical terms as much as possible to ensure higher quality English translations.

Options

Scientific Commentary

ProEdit Japan offers a Scientific Commentary service for medical researchers hoping to receive feedback and criticism on the scientific reporting of their research.

A ProEditor reviews the editor’s and referee’s comments on your original submission, ensures that your revisions adequately address the suggested changes, and helps prepare a response letter to the journal explaining your changes.

A ProEditor checks your manuscript to ensure that it agrees with the specific formatting requirements of the journal to which you intend to submit.

General Translation

General Translation is most often used for projects that do not require scientific editing such as cover letters, e-mail, or grant applications.

The ProEdit Process

Two translators are assigned to each General Translation order in a two-stage Japanese to English translation process. The first translator creates the first draft of English translation, and the second translator checks the English translation. In this second stage, the translator checks for omissions and mistranslations. Additionally, revisions are made to the translation when more suitable terms are available and as necessary, and the final draft of General Translation is ready.

※ Please note that with a General Translation order, scientific editing by a ProEditor (a native editor from the medical field) is not included.
