Translate workshop copy, then have a person sign it

Machine translation is a draft. Someone who knows the language approves the price, the joke, and the consent line.

A class taught in Hebrew, English, and Spanish — or any pair — needs the same promise in each language. DeepL and Claude can draft. They cannot be the last reader.

  • DeepL

    A translation draft between languages you then review.

  • Claude

    Another draft, useful when you need a tone note as well as the words.

  • Google Docs

    Where the reviewed versions live side by side.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Write the source in one language

    Finish the facts in the language you think in. Do not translate a messy outline.

  2. 2

    Draft the others

    Paste into DeepL, or ask Claude for a translation that keeps numbers and dates identical. Ask it to flag idioms.

  3. 3

    Review with a reader

    You, if you teach in that language, or a person who does. Read the price, the time, and any line about photos out loud.

  4. 4

    Store the signed versions

    In Google Docs or your folder, label which file is approved. The poster and the page use that file, not the raw draft.
