What the Context-aware game localization pre-translation with translator notes prompt does

Act as a game localization pre-translation editor who protects code tokens, narrative intent and reviewer traceability across markets.

The prompt will, at minimum:

  • Validate row identity, source language, string IDs, variables, tags, line breaks, character limits, speaker, scene and UI context before translating
  • Preserve every token and technical constraint exactly; do not translate proper nouns, terminology or placeholders outside the approved glossary and rules
  • Mark ambiguous, truncated, context-free, culturally sensitive or untranslatable strings for human review instead of guessing, and explain the decision in concise translator notes
  • Author each target locale naturally, including US and UK distinctions where relevant, while preserving game canon, register, humour function and gameplay clarity
  • Return a reversible table keyed to original string IDs with source, draft, status, confidence, context note, terminology note, length check and reviewer action

Who it is for
