Capital Letters translating from english to japanese, help?


Hello I have been on google translate this morning and realised that if I
translate two words first without capital letters and then with capital
letters at the beginning of each word like you would a name, the Japanese
translation changes significantly, so is there a correct or incorrect
translation, does the Japanese language use capital letters? can someone
please explain the difference in the translations below. Also I understand
that there are different japanese scripts, if possible could someone please
show me what the correct translation for Kaido Works looks like in those
different scripts. Thank You, K

kaido works カイドー作品 Kaidō sakuhin ------ Kaido Works カイドーワークス Kaidōwākusu




Japanese language does not have capital letters like what you have in English.

Google expects you obey the standard English formatting. If you capitalize
each word in English, the machine generally tries to translate it as a proper
noun (in this case, a company name). If you don't capitalize, it tries to
understand the phrase as a normal noun phrase. カイドー作品 is a normal noun phrase
that means "works created by Kaido", while カイドーワークス looks like a valid company
name. I don't know what you really mean by "Kaido Works", so I don't know
which is the better translation, either.
