Japanese translation FAQ

Japanese is the national language of Japan and is spoken by an estimated 128 million people as of 2020.

Japanese is written using characters, and has a number of alphabets, including one which includes the use of Chinese characters, and another which used the Kanji writing system.

Did you know that for centuries, Japanese existed as only a spoken language that wasn’t written down.

Nowadays, there are multiple writing systems used for Japanese, including Chinese characters. However, the most widely used script is a combination of Kanji and Kana, which are logographic and syllabic writing systems respectively.

According to the 2016 Census, Australia has 55,969 native speakers of Japanese, or 0.2% of the country's population. Japanese speakers made up 58,757 of the population of Australia as of the 2021 Census.

Japanese speakers are primarily found in big cities, with Sydney, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and Melbourne having the highest concentrations.

You can send us your documents in whatever format you have - a PDF, Word file, scan, or a photo. As long as the text is readable and clear, our professional translators can translate it for you. But before that happens, our Account Managers will analyse them and provide you with a personalised quote. 

If you have any specific requirements, let us know and we will do our absolute best to accommodate.

Probably not, as Japanese is written using a very different script, which will affect the length of translated text. Our translation specialists will be able to advise and guide you on this, so that the end product still matches your expectations.

Yes. We work exclusively with NAATI certified Japanese translators when translating from English into Japanese, and likewise, NAATI certified English translators when working on texts from Japanese into English.
