don't speak a language

have no idea yourself how the end product will turn out

every person you hire has to be trusted with a grain of salt and you have to take them at their word

Nightmare, but now that the game is out, it isn't like the content is under Fort Knox anymore and they can peer review it with the community until its right.

it's not like the cartridge age and they're burying them in the new mexico desert or something

I think translations should involve a pair of people where both know both languages but one is fluent in the one while the other is fluent in the other. Or a single person fluent in both, but if you don't know the other language, it can be hard to verify that fluency and I'm sure it's not very hard to find people willing to lie about their proficiency to get a job.
