Regional and dialect review checklist

Use this pass after generation to keep wording natural for your target audience.

Regional checks

  • If most of your Japanese audience is in Japan, localize spelling and references for that market.
  • For Japanese, keep line breaks compact because CJK captions can get dense quickly.
  • For short clips, keep each Japanese caption to one concise idea.
  • Keep a small Japanese glossary for names, places, and brand terms before your final QA pass.

Dialect checks

  • For Japanese audiences in Japan, prefer local terms that sound natural to viewers.
  • Keep one spelling standard per video so Japanese captions feel consistent.
  • Maintain a reusable glossary for repeated Japanese terms across episodes.

Best use cases for Japanese captions

  • Shorts/Reels/TikTok clips that need fast, readable captions
  • Repurposing long videos into captioned highlights
  • Hook-driven edits where captions keep the message clear on mute

Quick tips for cleaner Japanese captions

  • Review line breaks—CJK captions are easiest to read when they’re concise.
  • For short clips: aim for 1–2 short lines max; punchy captions perform better.
  • Avoid overcrowding the screen: shorter CJK lines improve comprehension.
  • Double-check names and terms; small changes can alter meaning.
  • Trim filler words (“um”, “like”) so captions feel clean and fast.
