Translation review can require linguistic expertise, subject matter knowledge, terminology management, regulatory awareness, and an understanding of what makes a translation fit for its intended purpose. That distinction matters because a reviewer who is not qualified for the task may unintentionally allow language risk to pass unnoticed.

If the same thing has multiple names, your audience may wonder whether it is actually the same thing. Where is your language risk? Sometimes, it is hiding in the words you thought were interchangeable.
