What gets translated

A real Norwegian version, not Japanese with Norwegian subtitles

Subtitling a Japanese video leaves your Norwegian audience reading while the Japanese audio runs underneath. ngram builds an actual Norwegian version: the Japanese speech, a mix of kanji and kana often delivered in polite keigo, is transcribed and translated, a Bokmål AI voice re-narrates it on the original timing, the captions are rebuilt in Norwegian with the letters æ, ø, and å intact, and any Japanese titles or lower thirds on screen are re-set in Latin script. Japanese and Norwegian share no roots, so this is a genuine translation across two writing systems, not a subtitle laid over the source.

It carries the register across, not just the words. The formal keigo of a corporate or technical briefing becomes natural Norwegian in the standard du address that business video uses in Norway, while a more casual delivery stays relaxed. The output is written in Bokmål, the variety most widely understood across the country, so a recording from a Tokyo team reads the same for viewers in Oslo, Bergen, or Stavanger.

Bokmål AI voiceover

The narration is re-voiced in natural Norwegian Bokmål with business-appropriate delivery, timed to the Japanese original.

Norwegian captions

Captions are translated and re-timed in Latin script, with æ, ø, and å rendered correctly instead of dropped.

On-screen text

Japanese titles, callouts, and lower thirds come out in Norwegian, not left in kanji or kana.

AI lip sync

Mouth movement adjusts to the Norwegian voiceover so a talking-head cut still reads as native.

Why Norwegian

Why Japanese teams translate video into Norwegian

Norway is a small but high-value market, and the Japan to Norway maritime and energy corridor is where a Norwegian cut pays off.

01

Reach a market with real purchasing power

Norwegian reaches one of the world's highest-GDP-per-capita markets, where energy, shipping, and aquaculture firms carry serious budget. A Japanese product demo or spec walkthrough lands in front of the offshore and maritime buyers who actually sign for industrial equipment.

02

Localize where rivals ship English and hope

Norway is small enough that most foreign suppliers never translate, so a Norwegian cut sets your pitch apart. The keigo politeness in a Japanese corporate or technical briefing is picked up on the way in and re-voiced in the Norwegian du register, so the formality reads right for an industrial audience instead of getting flattened.

03

Run the Japan to Norway supplier corridor

Japanese marine-engine, automotive, and industrial-automation makers sell into Norway's energy and shipping sector. A Japanese walkthrough becomes a Norwegian version your partners in Oslo, Bergen, and Stavanger can act on, without routing everything through an English draft first.

How it works

Japanese in, Norwegian out, in four steps

01

Upload the Japanese video

Drop in up to 1 minute of MP4, MOV, or WebM. Polite keigo narration and everyday Japanese speech are both understood.

02

ngram transcribes and translates

The Japanese audio is transcribed from kanji and kana, then the script, captions, and on-screen text are translated into Norwegian Bokmål.

03

Review the Norwegian version

Pick the Bokmål voice, confirm the du register, and keep the names and product terms the Japanese-to-Norwegian translation should preserve.

04

Export and publish

Export the Norwegian cut for the energy, shipping, and partner channels where the Japanese original could not go.
