Episode 16: Why you need to pay attention to localization
Join me and my guest Hristina Racheva (Google, Skyscanner) in a conversation about the importance of lozalization and why it can make or break your user experience. Most companies hire specialized writers only for their master language (usually, English) and foreign-speaking markets can suffer from bad translations, even damaging a brand's reputation. But localization is more than just translations.
Learning outcomes:
- What is localization?
- Why localization is more than just translations
- How you can support localization as a writer
- The opportunities of hiring a localization manager
...and more!
