Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of artificial intelligence translation, natural language processing, and cross-cultural communication technologies, specifically relating to an AI six-step standard translation method based on the theory of cultural thinking habits in translation. This invention also discloses a computer-readable storage medium and an AI translation system for performing the method. Background Technology

[0002] Current machine translation technologies largely rely on linguistic symbols, grammatical structures, and semantic word vectors, focusing on literal translation. They lack a systematic approach to deeper cultural elements such as cultural connotations, thought patterns, values, and historical traditions, easily leading to cultural distortion, awkward expression, inappropriate pragmatics, and misaligned thinking. Traditional translation theories, centered on language, fail to consider cultural thinking habits as the core object and basis for translation decisions, making it difficult to achieve truly meaningful cross-cultural equivalence. This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a thought-based translation paradigm. Centered on cultural thinking habits and aiming for functional equivalence, it establishes a standardized, quantifiable, and embeddable six-step thought-based translation process that fundamentally improves the cultural fidelity and naturalness of translation. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Purpose of the invention Overcome the shortcomings of traditional AI translation, which only focuses on linguistic form and ignores cultural thinking.

[0004] It provides a computer-executable, standardized, and quantifiable six-step standard thinking translation process for AI.

[0005] To upgrade AI translation from "language conversion" to equivalent conversion of cultural thinking habits and functions.

[0006] Improve the accuracy and naturalness of cross-cultural text translation, including those related to diplomacy, culture and tourism, intangible cultural heritage, literature, academia, and new media.

[0007] The present invention also provides a computer-readable storage medium, wherein the storage medium is a non-volatile computer-readable medium, including at least one of read-only memory (ROM), flash memory (Flash), hard disk, optical disk, and USB flash drive; The storage medium stores a computer-executable program. When the program is executed by a processor, it implements the AI ​​six-step translation method based on cultural thinking habits modeling as described in any one of claims 1-7, specifically performing the following steps: 1. Prepare the input source text for translation, determining the translation direction, text type, and target cultural context; 2. Use the cultural thinking habit analysis model to identify the cultural carrier type of the source text and extract cultural thinking elements; 3. Based on the multi-stationary-state optimization criterion, the source language cultural thinking is mapped to the target language cultural thinking to obtain the target language cultural carrier; 4. Following the four-level translation order principle, match the target language carrier level by level; 5. Generate a first draft of the translation that conforms to the target context based on the matched language carrier and the cultural carrier of the target language; 6. Verify the initial translation draft according to the equivalence standard of word, sentence and discourse levels. If the verification meets the standard, output the final translation; otherwise, return to iterative execution.

[0008] 3.2 Original Core Theoretical Library (Terminology Definitions) The implementation of the AI ​​six-step translation method relies on the resources in "3.2 Original Core Theoretical Library (Terminology Definition)". The theories and terminology in this invention's theoretical library are all original and defined for the first time by the inventor. During machine execution, the relevant "supporting theories" are automatically extracted from the theoretical library and analyzed step by step according to the "execution route". The terminology definitions in the theoretical library are as described in this specification, and those skilled in the art can uniquely and clearly understand and implement them. The theory of translation of cultural thinking habits (an original Chinese-based basic translation theory) takes the functional equivalence conversion between the source language cultural thinking habits and the target language cultural thinking habits as its core. It transforms the cultural thinking habits of the source language cultural carrier, which are carried by the source language carrier, into the cultural thinking habits of the target language cultural carrier through the target language carrier, and ultimately achieves a systematic translation theory that realizes the functional equivalence transmission across languages ​​and cultures.

[0009] Cultural thinking habits Culture, in the long-term historical accumulation of a specific country, ethnic group, or regional population, refers to a collective, systematic, inheritable, and developable system of ways of thinking and cognitive patterns formed around material and spiritual elements such as language, astronomy, geography, history, politics, literature, art, values, and lifestyles. It is the core and soul of culture, determining language expression, cultural understanding, and behavioral patterns, and possesses characteristics of collectivity, systematicity, complexity, inheritance, and development. It is divided into two categories: language carriers and cultural objects. Cultural objects are further subdivided into three levels: cultural objects of phonetic and written expression, cultural objects of linguistic / pragmatic meaning, and cultural objects of borrowed thought. This classification is analogous to transportation, with transportation tools analogous to language carriers and the transported goods analogous to cultural objects.

[0010] Language translation theory has yet to reach the level of thought translation theory because thought and cognition possess indescribable characteristics—individuality, ambiguity, randomness, and fragmentation—that cannot be fully summarized, described, or named using language. The definition and classification system of cultural thinking habits organically integrates the individuality, ambiguity, randomness, and fragmentation of thought and cognition within a framework, rewriting the indescribable characteristics of traditional thought and cognition. This allows thought to be fully described and defined using precise language, text, or symbols, thus overcoming the challenge of the indescribability of thought. For existing AI language translation paradigms, this classification and definition have irreplaceable significance.

[0011] Language carrier Translation refers to the collective and systematic expression of cultural thinking habits through written and spoken language. It is the external material presentation, transmission tool, and carrier medium of cultural carriers and cultural thinking habits, including pronunciation, writing, vocabulary, grammar, rhetoric, and text structure. It is used to carry, solidify, and transmit cultural thinking habits, and is not the ultimate goal of translation.

[0012] Cultural carriers Cultural thinking habits and modes of thinking are collective and systematic, encompassing both material and spiritual aspects. They represent the sum total of all cultural content carried by language, encompassing both material and spiritual dimensions, and are the specific content, external manifestation, and object of expression of cultural thinking habits. Cultural carriers can be further subdivided into three categories: (1) Cultural carriers of speech and writing Speech and writing systems embody collective and systematic cultural thinking patterns encompassing material, spiritual, and institutional aspects. "Form is thought," meaning that speech, characters, and writing forms serve as the surface carriers, enabling unified cognition without additional interpretation; therefore, translation prioritizes form.

[0013] (2) Linguistic meaning / pragmatic meaning cultural carrier Linguistic / pragmatic meaning refers to the collective and systematic material and spiritual cultural thinking patterns carried by cultural carriers. "Meaning is thinking," with the rational meaning of words, the pragmatic function of sentences, and the communicative meaning of context as its core. It requires transcending the cultural carriers that convey connotations through linguistic form, prioritizing thinking habits in translation.

[0014] (3) Borrowing from the carriers of thought and culture Borrowing cultural carriers refers to temporary, special material and spiritual ways of thinking that have not yet formed a collective, systematic cultural thinking habit and lack a direct linguistic carrier. These cultural carriers require interpretation based on specific contexts. Borrowing cultural carriers are the most complex, commonly used, and innovative type of cultural carrier among all categories. Borrowing thinking is a universally recognized cultural thinking habit, specifically referring to three situations: First, special borrowing, where existing phonetic or written expressions or linguistic meanings are borrowed to convey implicit intentions in a temporary, special context; second, transitional borrowing, where many emerging, niche cultural carriers and linguistic carriers initially require the use of existing linguistic carriers as a transition to form new cultural carriers and collective, systematic linguistic and cultural carriers; and third, mutual translation borrowing, where, in mutual translation, the other party lacks a directly corresponding phonetic or written cultural carrier or a linguistic / pragmatic cultural carrier, requiring the use of "special borrowing" or "transitional borrowing" to achieve the purpose of cultural carrier transformation.

[0015] Functional equivalence The core objective and criterion for this invention's translation is to enable the target language reader to achieve the same effective and functional understanding, feeling, cognition, and communication as the source language reader.

[0016] The overall optimal principle of translation Based on systems theory, with the goal of maximizing the overall function of the translation system, we coordinate the relationships between elements and the system, the system and the environment, and the parts and the whole, as well as the form and the content, to achieve the macro-level translation optimization principle that "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts".

[0017] Multi-stationary-state optimization criteria for translation Based on the theory of systemic mutation, among the various stable thinking modes (multiple stationary states) of the source language and the target language, the micro-operational principle is to select the thinking mode that best matches the communication goal, audience and scenario, based on the optimal functional fit point (entry point, combination point, common point) of cognition-emotion-behavior.

[0018] The principle of fidelity in translation (the theoretical baseline) The object of fidelity is the core of the original language culture's way of thinking, rather than the linguistic form or surface meaning.

[0019] Faithful embodiment: not formal equivalence, but functional equivalence of cultural thinking habits.

[0020] Faithful Boundaries: Allows reasonable adaptation, but does not allow arbitrary alteration. Appropriate adaptation: Do not change the core idea, but make adjustments only to facilitate understanding (such as transliteration + annotation).

[0021] Modification is prohibited: Distorting or replacing the core of the original language's thinking in order to cater to the target culture.

[0022] Translation routes and methods (theoretical and operational logic) Under the premise of the principle of fidelity Translation process: Analyze the cultural context of the source language → Adapt to the cultural context of the target language → Adapt to the linguistic context of the target language → Express the meaning using the linguistic context of the target language Translation Methodology: Analyze and synthesize the cultural thinking habits of the source language carrier using the cultural thinking habits of the entire source language culture; conduct cross-cultural comparison and adaptation with the cultural thinking habits of the source language carrier according to the cultural thinking habits of the entire target language culture; comprehensively organize and optimize the target language carrier; and ultimately achieve functional equivalence transformation from source language cultural thinking habits to target language cultural thinking habits.

[0023] Translation Essentials (Three-Step Practical Method) Key Point 1: Accurately analyze and synthesize the original language culture's thinking habits A comprehensive, profound, and systematic analysis of the cultural elements and thought patterns behind the source language is the foundation and prerequisite for translation.

[0024] Key Point Two: Accurately Translate into the Thinking Habits of the Target Language Culture Achieving cross-cultural equivalence in translation, bridging the thinking habits of the source language culture with those of the target language culture, is the core aspect of translation.

[0025] Key Point 3: Accurately analyze, synthesize, and select the target language vehicle. Accurately analyze and synthesize the cultural thinking habits of the target language's cultural carriers after transformation. Select natural, standard, and understandable target language carriers for expression.

[0026] Level 4 Translation Order Principles The translation order principle of cultural thinking habits translation theory is a hierarchical priority principle. Translations must be made in descending order of importance, with each level being either one or the other. Different levels can be used in combination. First priority: Cultural carriers in the form of spoken and written expression. This refers to prioritizing the translation of cultural artifacts carried by sound, characters, or writing, including proper nouns, specific appellations, and cultural proprietary items.

[0027] Main methods: transliteration, transcription, and directly preserving the written form.

[0028] Applicable to: cultural units in the original language culture that have unique identifiers and no direct corresponding language form.

[0029] Requirements: Prioritize preserving the original language's phonetic and written form to ensure cultural distinctiveness.

[0030] Second priority: Language / pragmatic meaning and cultural carriers After translating the phonetic and written forms, priority should be given to translating the cultural thinking embodied in the rational meaning of words, the pragmatic function of sentences, and the communicative meaning of context.

[0031] Core principle: Ensure accuracy of meaning and equivalence of pragmatic function. Applicable to: Everyday language, social communication language, and common cultural vocabulary with stable connotations.

[0032] Requirements: Achieve semantic and pragmatic equivalence without violating the principle of prioritizing phonetics and writing.

[0033] Third priority: Utilizing cultural and intellectual vehicles This refers to temporary, special, and cross-cultural borrowing-style thinking that lacks a fixed linguistic counterpart, lacks a collective systematic thinking, and requires specific context for interpretation.

[0034] Applicable to: Internet slang, dialects, culturally specific ways of thinking, and expressions of thought without corresponding concepts.

[0035] Requirements: This function must be used when the first two types of translations are unavailable, with an emphasis on equivalent adaptation of the underlying thought process.

[0036] Level 4: Translation that complements language and cultural elements When the current three-level translation is insufficient to fully convey cultural thinking, a complementary translation model is adopted, including: Translation that uses cultural elements to supplement translation that uses language. Translation of language as a medium supplements translation of cultural objects; To supplement another type of cultural translation with the translation of cultural objects.

[0037] Usage Rules At the word level: non-linear (cannot be superimposed), selection must be strictly in the order of 1→2→3→4, and cannot skip levels or reverse order.

[0038] At the sentence / discourse level: linear (can be superimposed), it can be superimposed, integrated, and used in a complementary manner based on the step-by-step selection of words and phrases to achieve equivalence of overall thinking.

[0039] Criteria for Judging Thinking Translation (Qualification / Certification Standards) (1) Word, phrase and sentence level The translation fully conforms to the cultural thinking habits of the source language in terms of three levels: the cultural carrier of phonetic and written expression, the cultural carrier of language / pragmatic meaning, and the cultural carrier of borrowed thinking. → It is recognized as a translation based on cultural thinking habits.

[0040] (2) Discourse level If more than 60% of the sentences in a passage or article are completely consistent with the original cultural context in terms of cultural thinking habits, it is considered a translation based on cultural thinking habits.

[0041] Theoretical differences (fundamental differences from traditional translation theory) Traditional translation theory focuses on language, studies the transformation of linguistic symbols, and pursues equivalence between linguistic form and meaning.

[0042] The theory of translation of cultural thinking habits: Centered on cultural thinking, this study investigates the transformation of cultural thinking habits and pursues the equivalence of thinking functions.

[0043] Specific differences: Theoretical basis: Linguistics ←→ Cultural Studies + Cognitive Science Research perspectives: Internal language perspective ←→ External culture perspective Translation goals: Linguistic form / meaning equivalence ←→ Cultural thinking habits and functional equivalence Practical path: Language → Direct language conversion ←→ Thinking → Indirect thinking conversion (language as the carrier and tool) 3.3 AI Six-Step Translation Method Based on the "3.2 Original Core Theory Library (Terminology Definitions)", a six-step standard thinking translation method is designed, which includes translation preparation, thinking refinement, thinking transformation, carrier matching, accurate expression, and translation verification, and can be executed by AI.

[0044] 4. Attached Figure Description Figure 1 is a flowchart of the AI ​​six-step translation method based on cultural thinking habits modeling of the present invention. This method starts with "inputting the original text". Input, and execute the following core steps in sequence: ① Translation preparation: Preprocess the original text and align it with the corpus; ② Mindset Extraction: Extracting the essential thought elements from the source language; ③ Mindset shift: Mapping the source language thinking pattern to the target language thinking framework; ④Voice matching: Select a language vehicle and sentence structure that are suitable for the expression habits of the target language; ⑤ Precise expression: Generate a translation that fits the target context; ⑥ Translation verification: Verify the translation from the dimensions of semantic equivalence, cultural fit, and pragmatic appropriateness.

[0045] Based on the "translation verification meets the standards" judgment: If the standard is met, the qualified "translation" will be output as the final result; If the requirement is not met, return to the "Input Original Text" node and repeat all steps until "Translation Verification Meets Requirements".

[0046] This process achieves an equivalent conversion of thought functions from the source language to the target language, ensuring the consistency and adaptability of the translation results across three levels of thought translation: cultural carriers of phonetic and written expression, cultural carriers of linguistic / pragmatic meaning, and cultural carriers of borrowed thought.

[0047] 5. Detailed Implementation: AI Six-Step Translation Method This invention, relying on "3.2 Original Core Theoretical Library (Terminology Definitions)," provides an AI six-step translation method based on cultural thinking habits, including... Includes the following sequential, iterative steps: 5.1 AI Six-Step Translation Method Based on the "3.2 Original Core Theoretical Library (Terminology Definitions)," this paper proposes a standardized six-step translation process for cultural thinking habits, which is operable and can be embedded in machine translation systems: "Translation Preparation → Mindset Refinement → Mindset Transformation → Carrier Matching → Precise Expression → Translation Verification." This process, guided by cultural understanding and mindset adaptation, forms a complete closed loop from source language analysis, cultural positioning, mindset transformation, expression reconstruction, translation verification to cultural adaptation optimization. It aims to address the shortcomings of existing translations in areas such as cultural gaps, rigid logic, and inconsistencies with linguistic conventions. Through standardized process design, translation not only achieves accuracy in linguistic form but also a natural transmission of cultural connotations and logical thinking, enhancing the readability, applicability, and cultural fidelity of the translated text.

[0048] Step 1: Translation Preparation: Preprocessing and aligning the source text with the corpus. Theoretical basis: The principle of overall system optimization and the research path of cultural thinking habits. Execution route: 1. Define the translation type: Define the translation direction and text type (foreign language to Chinese / Chinese to foreign language); 2. Define system boundaries: Identify the communication groups and cultural context; 3. Set overall goals: Based on the principle of overall system optimization, clarify the core functions that the translation needs to achieve.

[0049] The second step is to refine the thinking process: extracting the original thought elements. Theoretical Basis: Translation Essentials I, Definition and Classification of Cultural Thinking Habits, Three-Level Classification of Cultural Carriers Execution route: 1. Identify the types of cultural carriers in the original language; 2. Deconstructing the connotation of thought from both material and spiritual dimensions; 3. Verify the completeness of the thought process; 4. Extract the cultural elements that are carried by the original language.

[0050] The third step is mindset shift: mapping the source language thinking pattern to the target language thinking framework. Based on the theory: Key points of translation, multiple stationary state optimization criteria, translation routes and methods Execution route: 1. Analyze the multiple fixed-state options in the target language culture; 2. Determine functional similarity; 3. Adjust and adapt the deviation; 4. Refine the cultural carriers of the target language.

[0051] Step 4: Carrier matching: Select the language carrier and sentence structure that adapt to the expression habits of the target language Relying on theory: Key points of translation III, classification of cultural carriers, and the principle of the order of CET-4 translation Execution route: 1. Select the target language carriers step by step according to the CET-4 priority rules; 2. Verify the suitability of the carrier.

[0052] Step 5: Precise expression: Generate a translation draft that conforms to the target context Relying on theory: Key points of translation III, translation methods, and translation routes Execution route: 1. Optimize the fluency of expression: Sentence pattern adaptation Lexical precision Coherence optimization; 2. Form a complete, fluent, and initial translation draft that meets the goal of functional equivalence.

[0053] Step 6: Translation verification: Check the translation draft from the aspects of thinking equivalence, cultural adaptation, and pragmatic dimension Relying on theory: Translation judgment criteria, the principle of overall system optimization, and the multi-stable state optimization criterion Execution route: 1. Micro verification: Check whether the words, sentences, and clauses conform to the cultural thinking habits of the original language's cultural carriers; 2. Macro verification: The passing rate of the discourse ≥ 60% is considered qualified; 3. Dynamic adjustment and optimization: If not qualified, return to the previous steps for iteration until a qualified final translation is output.

[0054] 5.2 Beneficial effects For the first time, cultural thinking habits are taken as the core object of translation, realizing the upgrade from the language level to the thinking level.

[0055] Establish a complete thinking translation process that can be AI-enabled, standardized, quantified, and verified.

[0056] Significantly improve cultural fidelity.

[0057] Wide range of applications: Cross-cultural translation in multiple fields such as diplomacy, government affairs, culture and tourism, intangible cultural heritage, literature, academia, new media, and business.

[0058] The translation is more natural, more idiomatic, more in line with the thinking habits of the target language audience, and has a stronger communicative effect. 5.3 Specific embodiments Example 1 (Chinese to English: Cultural proprietary items, common AI translation is prone to errors) Original phrase: face Standard AI translation (literal) face (Only translating words, completely lacking cultural understanding) This invention: Six-step cultural thinking translation Step 1 Translation Preparation Translation from Chinese to English: core cultural terms; goal: to convey dignity, respectability, and social image.

[0060] The second step is to refine the thinking process. Culture as a vehicle for things: using thought as a vehicle for things Core mindset: Dignity, respectability, social image, and prestige in front of others.

[0061] The third step: mindset shift English has multiple definite forms: face → literal - dignity → too formal - social face / reputation & dignity → mental equivalence - Step 4: Carrier Matching Activating Level 3: Utilizing Cultural Vehicles of Thought Step 5: Precise Expression social face (one's dignity and reputation in public) Step 6 Translation Verification Complete transmission of thought → 100% qualified.

[0062] contrast Ordinary AI: face This invention: social face (one's dignity and reputation in public) → completely different. Ordinary AI only translates words, while the six-step method translates cultural thinking.

[0063] Example 2 (English to Chinese translation: using borrowed cultural carriers) Original phrase: Go viral! (Internet / new media slang) Standard AI translation (literal language) Viral transmission.

[0064] (Straightforward, lacking cultural thinking, and only making literal interpretations) This invention, AI Six-Step Standard Thinking Translation (Borrowing Thinking), Step 1 Translation Preparation Translation specialization: English to Chinese Text type: Internet new media terminology Cultural context: dissemination through short videos and social media platforms Objective: To achieve functional equivalence of cultural thinking habits Theory: The principle of overall system optimization The second step is to refine the thinking process. Determining the type of cultural artifact: Without fixed corresponding Chinese vocabulary, lacking collective systematic thinking, and requiring interpretation based on context → it belongs to the category of borrowing cultural carriers to deconstruct the original language thinking: rapid content dissemination, widespread online sharing, massive reposting, and viral success. Core thinking: It spread widely and became a hit across the internet in a short period of time. The third step is a shift in mindset (optimization of multiple stationary states). English thinking: viral = spread like a virus Chinese has no direct corresponding cultural carrier / linguistic vehicle Using mutual translation and borrowing Preferred stationary state: Viral spread → Awkward It went viral → Spoken but incomplete Viral across the internet / Going viral → Highest equivalent in cognitive function The fourth step is carrier matching (the four-level translation order principle). Level 1 speech-to-text format → None Level 2 linguistic / pragmatic meaning → No direct correspondence Level 3 borrowing of thought-cultural carriers → Activation Level 4 Complementary Translation → Not Enabled Officially launched: Level 3 - Utilizing thought and cultural carriers.

[0065] Step 5: Precise Expression Generating idiomatic expressions through mutual translation and borrowing: Going viral across the internet! Step 6 Translation Verification Micro-level: Fully aligns with the original phrase "rapid and widespread dissemination" → Qualified Macro: Compliance rate ≥ 60% → Qualified Conclusion: Through Output translation: Goes viral across the internet! The difference is immediately apparent through comparison: Ordinary AI: Viral spread (literal translation, derogatory, does not conform to the original language's cultural thinking) This invention: Going viral online (Mind translation, equivalence of source and target language cultural thinking) In this case: AI language translation has no direct corresponding Chinese words. It can only solve the translation problem of "no direct language carrier" in ordinary AI language translation by taking the "mutual translation and borrowing" route of the "borrowing thinking" of this invention. It relies on the special interpretation of context (network communication) to achieve the special equivalent conversion of thinking between the source language and the target language.

[0066] This translation utilizes the borrowing-thinking definition of this invention, employing cross-cultural borrowing to achieve equivalent transformation of thought. This borrowing-thinking translation is something existing AI language translation programs cannot achieve, which is the advantage of this invention. Ordinary AI language paradigm translations mostly only achieve equivalence at the first two levels of the three levels of thought translation: the cultural carrier of phonetic and textual expression, the cultural carrier of linguistic / pragmatic meaning, and the cultural carrier of borrowed thinking. Moreover, the error rate is high, and it cannot translate the third level of borrowed thinking cultural carriers. This is because the translation of the third level of borrowed thinking cultural carriers simply does not exist in existing language translation paradigms. The three-level detailed classification of cultural carriers of cultural thinking habits, by overcoming the global challenge of the indescribability of thought, has become the direction for the optimization and iteration of AI language translation paradigms towards thought translation paradigms.

[0067] 5.4 Specific Implementation of Computer-Readable Storage Media The computer program stored in the computer-readable storage medium is packaged in the form of a translation preparation module, a thought extraction module, a thought conversion module, a carrier matching module, a precise expression module, and a translation verification module. When the processor reads and executes the program, it calls the above modules to sequentially complete source text preprocessing, cultural thinking extraction, cross-cultural thinking conversion, language carrier matching, translation generation, and thinking equivalence verification, thereby realizing AI six-step standard thinking translation based on cultural thinking habits. If the verification fails, it automatically returns to the previous steps for iterative optimization until the thinking equivalence translation standard is met.
