FAQ

How many Japanese speakers are there in the world?

There are over 128 million native Japanese speakers, making it the 9th most spoken language in the world by number of native speakers

Is Japanese high or low context language?

Japanese is a high-context language, which means that many things are understood from context and are not explicitly stated, making the role of the three writing scripts even more critical in conveying meaning effectively.

How is Japanese written?

Japanese text can be written vertically, from top to bottom and right to left, or horizontally, from left to right, similar to English. Modern Japanese is most often written horizontally, but vertical writing is still used in many contexts, such as novels, newspapers, and calligraphy.

How many Japanese alphabets are there and why?

  • Kanji (漢字): These are characters adopted from Chinese. They are logograms, which means that each character represents a word or a part of a word. Kanji characters are used to write most of the content words (nouns, verbs, and adjectives) in Japanese. There are over 2,000 commonly used kanji in modern Japanese.

 

  • Hiragana (ひらがな): This is a syllabary, which means each character represents a syllable sound. Hiragana is used to write grammatical words and word endings (inflections), as well as words for which there are no kanji. It is also used to write native Japanese words.

 

  • Katakana (カタカナ): Like Hiragana, Katakana is also a syllabary. It is used primarily to write foreign words, loanwords, onomatopoeia, and the names of plants, animals, and minerals. It is also often used to convey emphasis, similar to italics in English.

What is the qualification and native proficiency of your translators?

Our translators are native speakers with a minimum of 3 years’ professional experience.

What is a 'certified translation'?

A certified translation is a rendition of a document that a translator has formally verified as being a full, faithful, and accurate representation of the original text submitted for translation. To qualify as an official or legal document, the law mandates that a certified translation must bear a stamp and signature.

Do your translators have experience in my industry?

Absolutely. Our team has specialists in various industries, from tech to healthcare.

Do you have a quality control process, such as proofreading or editing?

Each translation undergoes rigorous proofreading and quality checks. No room for errors here..

Can you accommodate urgent requests if needed?

Expect a swift turnaround. For urgent needs, we offer express services.

Can you provide references or examples of past work similar to my project?

Want references? Just ask. We’ve delighted clients globally and they’re happy to vouch for us.

Will I have a dedicated project manager or a single point of contact throughout the process?

Your dedicated project manager will steer the ship—from start to stellar finish.

What formats can you work with, and in what format will the translations be delivered?

We can work with variety of file formats, from Indesign files to xml, xliff, json.

What are your data security protocols?

We follow strict confidentiality and data security protocols.

Thanks TTC Wetranslate Ltd. Your assistance in arranging Ukrainian translators, who donated their time and effort, in order to translate so many documents required by the Home Office is really appreciated. The visa application for our relative’s child, who had to flee this senseless war, to join us in the UK, was made much easier with your help. We really appreciate such generosity and kindness!

What a wonderful company! We approached TTC as we needed help in translating a document for the Afghan refugees. I liaised with Denise who was extremely helpful and not only did TTC immediately offer assistance, but they also provided this service absolutely free of charge. Levent went beyond what was required in assisting us and additionally donated towards the project. Could not recommend this company enough - Professional, efficient and an excellent community spirit!
