Review the translation and ask for tweaks

DeepSeek will return a translation. Read it carefully. If a sentence feels unnatural or too literal, ask for a smoother version:

Make the translation more conversational and keep the same tone as the original.

If you need a formal or informal style, specify it:

Use a polite, formal tone suitable for a business letter.

💬 Try typing thisYou receive a slightly stiff translation. You reply:

Make it sound more like a native speaker wrote it, but keep the meaning exact.


4

Copy the final translation and save it

Once you’re happy, copy the translated text (highlight it and press Ctrl+C or Cmd+C). Paste it into your document, email, or note app. Save the file with a clear name like “Invoice_Italian_2025”.

⚠️ Common mistakes
  • Pasting too much text at once: DeepSeek works best with short paragraphs (under 500 words). Break long documents into smaller chunks and translate section by section.
  • Not specifying the tone: If your document is casual (like a text to a friend), say so. If it’s formal (like a job application), ask for a formal tone.
  • Ignoring layout: DeepSeek keeps line breaks but may not preserve complex formatting (tables, columns). Keep it simple or re-format after translation.
