"Eight conversations translated this morning. Six were Thai-to-English with high confidence. Two needed flagging: the first had a Thai idiom about 'feeling like a fish out of water' that does not land in English the same way - I have offered three rendering options. The second was an English-to-Thai outbound reply where the customer's previous messages were quite formal, and the draft from your team felt a touch casual; I have suggested a more respectful rendering and explained why. Both are ready for your review."
