Natural English by native speaker translators

Doctor English is a translation and proofreading service based in Sendai. All Japanese-English translation and English proofreading is performed by native English speakers, providing English text which appears natural to non-Japanese speakers of English, and is easy to understand. Many Japanese translators produce English which is grammatically correct but follows the original Japanese too closely, resulting in English which seems unnatural. In order for the reader to grasp the meaning you want to convery it is necessary to produce a translation which is natural and easily grasped.

Why should proofreading be done by native speakers?


If English text is not checked by a native speaker, there is a good chance the translation will seem strange. In addition, English is full of expressions which, if not used correctly, can be interpreted by native speakers to mean something quite peculiar. In order to be sure the translation does not include any embarrassing expressions, checking by a native speaker is essential.

British or American English?


The English taught in Japan is American English, but in many countries the standard is British English. Most countries in Asia, Africa, Europe and Oceania use British English. At Doctor English we can proofread both American and British English.
