۳- تغییر سبک

گاهی اوقات، هنگام ترجمه متن، ممکن است ترجمه ما برای مخاطب هدف بیش از حد فنی یا تخصصیباشد. استفاده از تغییر سبک در ChatGPT می‌تواند به تنظیم لحن و سبک ترجمه کمک کند تا با مخاطب موردنظر ما هماهنگ‌تر شود. برای مثال اگر شما در حال ترجمه یک سند حقوقی هستید، ترجمه بهتر است سبک اصلی نویسنده را حفظ کند و در عین حال از کلمات ساده‌تر و عامیانه‌تری استفاده کند. در مثال زیر، من یک گزارش فوتبال را از اسپانیایی به انگلیسی ترجمه کردم، ابتدا بدون تغییر سبک و سپس با استفاده از تغییر سبک.

To use style transfer when translating, use prompts like:

• Translate [text to translate] to [target language] in layman’s terms.
• Translate [text to translate] to [target language] for a [grade 5] audience
• Translate [text to translate] to [target language]. Use style transfer to make the translated text suitable for a [target audience]

You might have to tweak and adjust the style you want, but the possibilities are effectively endless.

۴- مشخص کردن معادل کلمات کلیدی

۵- ترجمه و خلاصه

Sometimes, you don’t want to read the entirety of a text. You just want to understand the message the author or speaker is trying to convey. ChatGPT is one of the few translation tools you can rely on for situations like this.Fort a summarized translation, ask ChatGPT to provide a “summarized” or “condensed” translation of the target text. Some prompts examples include:

• Provide a descriptive but condensed translation of [text to translate] in Spanish.
• Provide a summarized translation of [text to translate] in French.
• Provide a summarized translation of [text to translate] in English.
• Translate this article into Dutch, but only include the key points.

Translation summaries are great when you’re trying to communicate but don’t necessarily have time to get deep into learning the language immediately.

۶. Use a Fine-Tuned Instance of ChatGPT

Using a fine-tuned instance of ChatGPT is one of the best ways to utilize ChatGPT as a translation tool. It opens up almost endless possibilities for translation using the AI chatbot. But how can you fine-tune ChatGPT for translation?

You can fine-tune ChatGPT in several ways. A key component to fine-tuning ChatGPT for translation is laying out rules the chatbot must follow when translating any text you provide. For instance, you can fine-tune ChatGPT by providing a word-translation or text-translation pair.

For example, while trying to translate a Pidgin text into English, we ran into some wrongly translated words. Providing the word-translation pairs below made ChatGPT update its translation of the words in subsequent translations.

You can also make ChatGPT translations more accurate by providing several large texts and their verified translations. You can then prompt ChatGPT to deduce the right translation of words and phrases from the provided samples and apply it when translating text involving a similar language pair. While you can use significantly longer texts to fine-tune ChatGPT translations, below is a short illustration of how it works using a short paragraph.

۷. Use Custom Instructions for Consistency in Translations

If you use ChatGPT for translation frequently, one of the most frustrating limitations you’ll experience is having to provide certain translation instructions every time you start a new chat. Fortunately, ChatGPT’s Custom Instructions feature can help solve that problem. The feature allows you to create reusable translation instructions that ChatGPT will remember across all future conversations. You can use it to specify your preferred translation style just once, and ChatGPT will then apply automatically whenever you ask ChatGPT to translate something.

For instance, in point six above, we talked about a word-translation pair. You can simply add your preferred translations of words to the ChatGPT Custom Instruction editor and have the chatbot use that preference across all chat sessions. If you spend time translating between two specific languages and use tricky, unique, or colloquial words and phrasing, this will speed up your ChatGPT language translation efforts.

۸. Replicate Linguistic Form

Being able to replicate linguistic forms on demand is one of the most important advantages of ChatGPT as a translation tool over conventional translation tools. In certain texts, like those meant to entertain, the choice of words and phrases is always integral to creating entertainment value. Simply substituting different terms in another language may not preserve entertainment value.

For instance, word-for-word translation typically fails in humorous or poetic texts relying on wordplay, rhymes, and linguistic tricks. Puns, jokes, and poems lose impact when important language techniques get lost in translation. Preserving humor and artistry requires maintaining original creative language use.

Consider the Spanish sentence, “Si el dolor de cabeza te alcanza, esta poción lo lanza.”

“Cabeza,” “alcanza,” and “lanza” rhyme to create a comical effect and give the sentence its value. The literal English translation for the Spanish sentence would be, “If a headache finds you, this potion sends it away.” However, this translation loses the entertainment value of the multiple rhyming words.

You can get ChatGPT to translate while retaining at least some semblance of its original artistic or comic value. This can be achieved by instructing ChatGPT to retain its original form, preferably by providing an example ChatGPT can learn from. In the example in the screenshot below, we asked ChatGPT to translate some Spanish sentences while preserving the sense of humor, playfulness, rhyming, or creativity and staying true to the original meaning.

Of course, this is not a perfect translation example, but with a few prompt tweaks, there’s more to achieve.

Don’t Rely Solely on Machine Translation

While ChatGPT is an impressive translation tool, it’s important to remember that it is still a machine and may not always produce the best translation. So don’t rely solely on it, especially for important or sensitive documents. Instead, try a combination of tools, and whenever possible, consider using a professional translator to proofread to ensure accuracy.

Validation

To confirm the accuracy of the translation, you can paste the translated poem into Google Translate to

get the English version. In this case, the translation is nearly flawless, which is impressive given the difficulty of translating poetry. It successfully captures both the essence and the meaning of the original poem.
