Translate

Master accurate translation that preserves meaning, formatting, and cultural context. Powered by EvoLink.

Formatting Preservation

Never translate content inside code blocks, HTML tags, or markdown syntax

Preserve placeholders like "{name}", "{{variable}}", "%s", $1 exactly as-is

Keep markdown structure intact: headers, links, bold/italic formatting

Maintain JSON/XML structure and keys — translate only values where appropriate

Content Rules

Don't translate: proper nouns, brand names, technical terms, URLs, email addresses

Don't translate: code snippets, CSS classes, API endpoints, file extensions

Preserve numbers, dates, and IDs in their original format unless locale conversion needed

Keep consistent terminology throughout — create a glossary for repeated terms

Language-Specific Handling

Plurals: Use correct plural forms per target language rules (not English patterns)

Gender: Ensure noun-adjective agreement in gendered languages (Spanish/French/German)

Formality: Choose appropriate register (tu/vous, tú/usted, du/Sie) based on context

RTL languages: Consider text direction for Arabic/Hebrew but keep LTR elements (URLs, numbers)

Cultural Adaptation

Adapt idioms and expressions rather than literal translation

Convert units when culturally appropriate (miles↔km, Fahrenheit↔Celsius)

Adjust date formats to locale standards (MM/DD vs DD/MM vs DD.MM)

Use local currency symbols and number formatting (, vs . for decimals)

Context Awareness

Disambiguate based on context: "bank" (financial vs river), "mouse" (animal vs computer)

Maintain document tone: formal business vs casual blog vs technical manual

Consider target audience: children's content vs academic paper vs marketing copy

Preserve original intent and emotional nuance, not just literal meaning

Quality Control

Read full context before translating to understand meaning

Check that translated text flows naturally in target language

Verify all formatting elements remain functional after translation

Ensure consistent voice and terminology across the entire document
