Service 03 · Translation & localization

English ↔ Danish, done right.

Full-service translation and localization in both directions, for anything that needs translating: legal documents, commercial copy, UGC, books and games. Native Danish, fluent English, and an eye for how the text actually lands with its reader.

What I translate

If it has words, I can translate it.

English → Danish and Danish → English. A few of the areas I work in:

  • Legal documents

    Contracts, terms, agreements and formal documents, translated with care for precise wording.

  • Commercial & marketing

    Ads, product copy, websites and campaigns that still sell in the other language.

  • UGC & social content

    Creator content, social posts and community copy that keeps its tone and personality.

  • Books

    Fiction and nonfiction, with attention to voice, rhythm and style, not just meaning.

  • Games & localization

    Game translation, proofreading and in-game LQA, tested in the build so the text works where players see it. See credits ↓

Most of my translation work, from legal and commercial to books, is under NDA, and that confidentiality is never broken. The games below are the work I can show publicly, and your project gets the same discretion.

Public proof · Games

The work I can show.

Most client translation stays confidential. These shipped games are public, verifiable proof of the standard I work to on every project.

They’re also a genuine specialty. On each title I’ve handled localization and in-build LQA: translating between English and Danish, then testing the text, UI and on-screen copy live in the game. That’s experience most translators don’t have.
