The bilingual desk / One meaning, two languages
Carry your words into another language—not into corporate jargon. Choose an explicit language pair, protect names and specialist terms, and review the translation beside your original.
Select a language pair. Paste your text. Keep the original in view.
Start with an example
Configured choices, not quality ratings. Nine languages can be sources or targets; same-language requests are excluded. All pairs need an AI provider and may differ in quality.
| Source language | Selectable targets |
|---|---|
| English | Any of the other 8 languages |
| Spanish | Any of the other 8 languages |
| French | Any of the other 8 languages |
| German | Any of the other 8 languages |
| Portuguese | Any of the other 8 languages |
| Italian | Any of the other 8 languages |
| Dutch | Any of the other 8 languages |
| Polish | Any of the other 8 languages |
| Simplified Chinese | Any of the other 8 languages |
Translation, not transformation
The same English word can describe two different jobs here. Translating a language changes how a reader understands your existing message; translating into LinkedIn speak changes its style. This desk does the first job, with your source text as the boundary.
01
Choose the language your draft is written in and a different target language. There is no automatic language detection or hidden switch to English. For mixed-language passages, simplify the source or translate one section at a time.
02
Add up to ten source terms, one per line, to preserve exactly. Product names, acronyms and a person's preferred spelling are useful candidates. Terms must appear in the original; they are not a place to give the AI extra instructions.
03
Review the original and editable translation together. Keep responsibility, dates, quantities, uncertainty and disagreement at the same strength. Preserved terms are checked literally, but that does not establish overall translation accuracy.
Original editorial examples
These are illustrative examples written for this page, not testimonials or guaranteed model outputs. They show what to inspect when reviewing a draft.
01
Source
“We tested the pilot with 3 teams in 2024. We have not measured wider results.”
Illustrative translation
Probamos el piloto con 3 equipos en 2024. No hemos medido resultados a mayor escala.
What to check
The pilot still involved three teams. The date stays 2024, and unmeasured wider results do not become a success claim.
02
Source
“J'ai aidé l'équipe Atlas à préparer deux ateliers. Je n'ai pas dirigé le projet.”
Illustrative translation
I helped the Atlas team prepare two workshops. I did not lead the project.
What to check
Helping does not become leading. Protect Atlas if it is the official spelling; keep the negative statement.
03
Source
“The draft is ready for review. Could you send feedback by Friday?”
Illustrative translation
草稿已准备好供审阅。你能在周五之前提供反馈吗？
What to check
An invitation stays a question rather than a demand. Confirm that Friday is clear to the recipient before sending.
Where this desk fits
Paste text you are permitted to process. This tool does not retrieve a LinkedIn URL, sign into an account or publish a translated version.
Work with a short finished update instead of asking for a new hook or fresh argument. The model is instructed to keep existing paragraphs and lists without adding hashtags, calls to action or extra achievements.
Translate one Headline, About or Experience passage at a time. Review names, qualifications and titles with a fluent reader. This desk does not edit a live profile or create a second-language profile on LinkedIn.
Use short, non-confidential text. An edited translation can become the new source with the reverse-direction button, but a round trip is not proof that the first translation was correct.
The human review
A literal match can check a name or year; it cannot reliably judge tone, idioms, implied seniority or professional terminology. Keep human review in the workflow.
Compare each number with the original activity and timeframe. A one-off workshop in 2024 must not become an annual program. Do not assume changing a number into words changes its value.
Look for may, not yet, helped, pilot and similar boundaries. Translation should not upgrade a possibility into a promise or soften a disagreement into agreement.
Protected terms preserve spelling and case, not pronunciation or context. Ask a fluent reader to check specialist vocabulary and appropriate formality, especially before publishing a profile or outreach message.
Translations can be longer than their source. This desk counts the result but does not certify platform field limits; check the destination before pasting.
Before you translate
Language support is a configured product capability, not a promise of equivalent quality for every language pair.
A different next step
Change the task only after you have reviewed the translation.
Coordinate Headline, About and Experience rather than translating one passage.
Arrange approved wording without asking AI to rewrite it.
Decode professional jargon when the problem is register, not language.
Separate language translation, LinkedIn Speak and translated posts in your feed.
Keep the meaning
Use the LinkedIn language translator for a draft you can compare, edit and decide to share yourself.
