Their attention to nuance and commitment to preserving the original meaning in each translated text were outstanding.”The names and roles of all the localization managers, translators, and LQA specialists involved in localizing the game.

Familiarization is something you do to get to know the game that you're about to translate, but for me it's also a precious time to fall in love with the game.

I’m not good with numbers, so I work with words. But I’m still surrounded by numbers—word counts, deadlines, rates… What gives? 数字は苦手だから、言葉に関わる仕事をしていると 言っても過言ではないのだけど、 ワード数とか、納期とか、単価とか 気がつけば結局は数字に囲まれている…😓

I played my fiddle after a long time, and it took so long to tune. Alison, my fiddle, was letting me know how mad she was. I'm sorry—I missed you too. I'll see you tomorrow🎻

It was cloudy but quite nice and warm, so I got out of my cave and went for a walk. I enjoyed it very much, but I lost my hat. If it had been a super cold day, I might have noticed earlier..😓 Bye-bye, hat. I hope you went to a nice home.
