Context - reporting and correcting texts that don't seem to match with what actually is happening in the game. Consistency - reporting and correcting on-screen text and subtitling (if relevant) that have already been translated differently elsewhere in the game. Programming - flagging any missing language elements (menu or on-screen texts, subtitling, speech files), plus length issues (texts that run off the screen) and propose corrections whenever possible. Of course you never forget your job is to spot linguistic errors and not to debug the programming code.
