Native German translator (EN⇆DE) with 200+ completed projects and an all-5-star record on Upwork (90+ jobs, $10K+ earned). I turn English into German that reads like it was written in German -- accurate, on-brand, and delivered on time. I help apps, brands and agencies reach the German-speaking markets (DE / AT / CH). What I translate & localize: • Apps, games, software & websites: UI strings, help docs, release notes • iGaming: casino & sportsbook content, reviews, promos, T&Cs • Marketing & e-commerce: Amazon listings, Google Ads, blog & SEO articles • Subtitles (YouTube & video), PowerPoint, emails, business documents • And more! Why clients rehire me: • Native German and English, natural tone, never literal word-swaps • I do not rely on machine translation, and I proofread every single document to ensure it is flawless before sending it to you. • Deadlines treated as promises, with clear communication throughout What clients say: “…it is a great experience to work with her, amazing job…” “…an excellent ENG-DE translation. Accurately, promptly and flawless.” “…completed the work before the deadline…” Tell me about your project and your target market (Germany, Austria or Switzerland) and I'll help you get it right the first time. Best, Natalja

Here's something most translators won't tell you: in 2026, the majority of professional translators use AI tools. The difference is whether they admit it — and whether a human expert is reviewing every word before it reaches you. I help companies localize their apps, websites, e-commerce stores, and marketing content for German-speaking audiences with a focus on accuracy, natural language, and cultural adaptation. My services include: ✓ App & UX localization (Crowdin, Lokalise, Phrase) ✓ Website and software localization ✓ E-commerce localization (Shopify, Amazon) ✓ Subtitle & caption translation (SRT, VTT) ✓ SEO content localization ✓ AI translation post-editing & linguistic quality review My approach is simple: Whether your project requires 100% human translation or AI-assisted workflows, every delivery goes through careful human linguistic review. What you can expect: ✓ Native-level German, English, and Turkish ✓ Natural, audience-focused translations ✓ Consistent terminology and style ✓ Reliable communication and deadlines I don't just translate words — I help your content feel native. Let's discuss how I can support your next localization project.
