Translate and keep the register.
The translation you actually want — where formal stays formal, dry stays dry, warm stays warm, and the target language reads native.
You have a text that needs to work in another language — a landing page, an email, a product line. Literal translation flattens the tone. This prompt matches the register by producing three variants at different formalities and telling you which one fits the context.
THE PROMPT
Translate the following text into [TARGET LANGUAGE]. Instead of one translation, give me three at different registers: **Formal** — the version appropriate for legal documents, board communications, or press releases in the target culture. **Neutral** — the version appropriate for professional email, marketing copy, or general publication. **Warm / conversational** — the version appropriate for informal writing, social posts, or spoken delivery. For each: give the translation, then one sentence naming when this version is the right one in the target-language culture (not the source-language culture — cultural norms differ). Note where the target language has a register move the source doesn't (e.g., `tu` vs `vous` in French, `使う` vs `使わせていただく` in Japanese) and pick one, with a brief note on why. Then: **Pick one for me**, given the context I describe below, with reasoning. Source text: [PASTE TEXT] Source language: [LANGUAGE] Context: [WHERE IS THIS RUNNING — press, in-product, personal correspondence, ad] Target audience: [WHO'S READING]
**Formal (Japanese)**
「LADLEをご利用いただくことで、毎月10食分が選定中の飢餓支援団体との正式パートナーシップに向けた食事支援基金に確保されます。」
Use when: press release, formal partnership announcement, or communication with an institutional partner. The `ご利用いただく` construction reads appropriately respectful without being obsequious.
**Neutral (Japanese)**
「LADLEを使うと、毎月10食分が選定中の飢餓支援団体との正式パートナーシップを目指す食事基金に確保されます。」
Use when: standard marketing copy, product page, general blog post. Reads professional but not stiff.
**Warm / conversational (Japanese)**
「LADLEを使えば、毎月10食分が食事基金に確保される。選定中の支援団体との正式パートナーシップに向けて。」
Use when: social post, personal-voice blog, spoken video. The dropped particle and shorter rhythm carry a personal register.
**Pick one for me**
Given the context you described — a product landing page for a Japanese audience — go with the neutral version. Formal reads too corporate for a small-brand landing page in the JP market; warm reads too casual for a first-time visitor who doesn't know you yet. The neutral hits the register where Japanese SaaS product pages actually live.
