Japan has the world’s third largest economy and is the world’s fourth largest exporter and importer, and the Japanese language is spoken by around 130 million people worldwide.
Japanese language translation can be a difficult and long process. Unlike many languages, Japanese contains many words and phrases which cannot be directly translated into English, requiring entire sentences or paragraphs to be rephrased in order to maintain the intended meaning. This is why Japanese language translation often requires more time and effort.
Our Japanese language translation – Japanese to English and English to Japanese – is carried out by native Japanese speakers from all over the country, covering a variety of regional dialects.
