2. Preparation of Academic Glossary for Translation

Model: gpt-4o

Prompt:

Your task is to prepare an academic text in any language for translation into English. This involves creating a glossary of key terms. In addition, you will be provided with a manual glossary that you must unify with the automatically generated glossary. Follow these instructions carefully:

1. Carefully read the following academic text in its original language:

<academic_text>
Proporcione el texto académico en su idioma original
</academic_text>

2. Carefully read the following manual glossary in English:

<glossario_manual>
VAR_2
</glossary_manual>

3. Create a glossary of key terms that are important to the understanding of the text and may present challenges in translation. Include:
- Technical or discipline-specific terms.
- Culturally specific idiomatic phrases or expressions
- Complex concepts that require additional explanation

4. Unify the glossary generated in step 3 with the manual glossary provided in step 2.

5. For each term in the unified glossary, provide:
- The term in its original language
- A brief definition in English
- An example of usage in context (if relevant)
- Possible English translations (if known)

6. Submit your answer in the following format:

<glossary>
Term: [term in original language] 2.
Definition: [definition in English] 2.
Example: [example of use] (if relevant)
Possible translations: [English translations] (if known)

2. Term: [next term].
...
</glossary>

Make sure that your glossary is comprehensive and that all relevant terms are marked in the text. This will help significantly in the subsequent translation process.

Strict translation guidelines

1. Faithfulness to meaning and tone:
- Faithfully translate the meaning, context, and nuances of the original text.
- Maintain consistent style and tone throughout the text (formal, informal, technical, narrative, etc.).
- Places the translated text in the form in which it is presented in the original, without arbitrarily omitting or summarizing anything. Generate only the results of your paraphrase and never add other explanations or comments.
2. Format and style:
- Preserve the exact position of the title as it appears in the original text.
- If a title is in the middle of the text or at the end, respect it; do not move it to the beginning.
- Translate titles with formatting: Chapter X. [Translated title]. Use Arabic numerals only.
- Do not alter the formatting of the text; correctly identify the formatting of each of the headings in the text:
- Bold type: ALL TITLES should be in bold type, no exceptions. Also use bold or italics every time it is used in the original text. To do this, correctly identify all headings and the main heading of the text.
- Symbols, bullets and numbering: Maintain accuracy. Do not eliminate or modify the signs present.
- Markdown: Apply it only to chapter headings.
- Place reference numbers in parentheses throughout the text.
- **Crucially: The original text is formatted in two columns. You must infer the correct reading order and translate the text as a single, coherent unit, connecting the content from the first column to the second column logically. Do not attempt to recreate the two-column layout in the translation.**
- Identify correctly all punctuation marks and line breaks between paragraphs along the whole text and paragraphs. Do not change punctuation marks from the ones defined on the original text.
3. Clear prohibitions:
- Do not miss any paragraphs from the original text.
- Do not translate fragments in isolation: be sure to translate the entire text including the title.
- Do not create non-existent headings or subheadings in the text, keep what the text originally says.
- Do not include partial or incomplete translations.
- Exclude ALL tables, charts or graphs that appear in the text. You can identify them since these elements are mentioned in a paragraph prior to their appearance and usually end with a sentence that includes the word "figure" or "table" and a number.
- Read the translated text carefully and identify the patterns or features that indicate the footnote information in each section. These may be repetitive phrases, page numbers, dates, authors, or any other elements that appear consistently at the bottom of each page. Exclude all of this information from each page without affecting the consistency of the text.
- Do not exclude any paragraph, only the footnote text. Correctly identify each paragraph throughout the text of the document without losing coherence.
- Do not place tables or figures in the final text.
4. Idiomatic adaptations:
- If there are cultural or idiomatic expressions, adapt them to the English-speaking context while maintaining the meaning.

Delivery instructions

Final structure:
- Start directly with the translation. Do not add content outside the translated text.
- Present the translated text in a coherent and natural way.
2. Final checks:
- Check all translated elements: Make sure no part is omitted.
- Position intact: Titles and chapters must remain in the same place where they were in the original text.
- Be sure to exclude the content of tables and tables of contents from the final text. This content always ends or begins with its identification, which has the word "figure" or "table" followed by a number and the title of the table or table.
- Make sure you have removed all the content of the footer identified above.
- All final text must be in English, no exceptions.

Remember: Accuracy, naturalness and consistency are a priority. Check every detail before finalizing the delivery.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT MISS any of the translation guidelines. Review them if necessary.

Style Editor

Model: gpt-4o

</translation_elements>

Edit the preliminary text fragment considering the translation elements and incorporate the following instructions:
1. If the draft text contains unnatural expressions in English, correct them so that they are fluent and natural.
2. If the narrative parts are translated in a formal style, change them to a more neutral or standard style. Avoid modifying texts that are already appropriate or that correspond to speeches or letters.
3. In dialogues, speeches or letters, translate in a colloquial and natural way, making sure that they are clearly distinguished from the narrative parts. Use the character information and examples included in the translation elements.
4. Maintain overall consistency by using the translation elements provided.
5. Merge sentences when necessary to clarify meaning.
6. If pronouns are unclear, replace them with corresponding nouns considering the context.
7. Be sure to maintain accuracy in technical terms and proper nouns, adding explanations when necessary.
8. Always include elements such as headings, subheadings, dates and symbols integrated in the preliminary text.
9. Proofread and edit all draft text, making sure it is polished.
10. Respect the paragraph structure of the draft text.
11. Do not create non-existent headings or subheadings, keep the information that appears in the original text.
12. Be as faithful as possible to the original text, in terms of headings and format. Do not omit titles found in the original text that do not belong in the header or footer.
13. Be sure to maintain the formatting of the original text, placing headings and subheadings in bold. Do not include bold type where it does not belong.
14. Do not include the footnote or the content of tables or figures for any reason.

The result of the edition must be in plain text. Do not use Markdown format, code blocks or XML tags. Do not include reference elements in the final text.

Important considerations:
- Preserve the core message and tone of the draft text.
- Pay attention to English grammar and spelling.
- Adjust expressions to be culturally appropriate for English-speaking readers.
- If the text includes symbols, keep them exactly the same in the output.
- Add connectors where necessary to improve the flow of the text.

Follow these instructions and provide only the final output of the preliminary text contained within the tags, in plain text. Do not include additional explanations or comments.
