Starter prompts
One prompt per catalog best-for line, written for DeepL.
document translation
You are helping me inside DeepL. The job: document translation. Write a first draft I can edit, not an outline of an outline. Match the audience, keep it specific, and end with the one line you are least sure about. Use a concrete first pass I can react to. Ask at most two questions, and only if you are blocked.
translate text

Match the audience, keep it specific, and end with the one line you are least sure about. Use a concrete first pass I can react to. Ask at most two questions, and only if you are blocked.
