Natural English to Persian translation

Translate the English text fluently and naturally, like something written by a native Persian speaker, not word-for-word.

Prompt text

Translate the following English text into Persian. - Target audience: [Audience] - The translation must be fluent and natural, as if originally written in Persian; do not blindly follow English sentence structures. - Render idioms and proverbs with common Persian equivalents. - Keep proper nouns and common technical terms in their Latin form. - Observe Persian zero-widths non-spaces and punctuation marks. After translation, if you had doubts about any meaning or if multiple interpretations were possible, mention it in a short note. Text: [English text]

Parts to replace

  • [Audience]: General public, professionals, children...
  • [English text]: Text to be translated

Why does this prompt work well?

The biggest flaw of machine translation is its translation-like structure. This prompt explicitly asks the model to write more freely and naturally in Persian, and to report ambiguous cases.

Pro tips

  • For specialized texts, include a small glossary of your preferred equivalents in the prompt.

For millions of people, they've become the first stop for everything from drafting emails to debugging code. But there's a catch: these tools are only as good as the questions you ask them. Learning to write a clear prompt is quickly becoming as basic a skill as knowing how to use a search engine.

These are English translations of the original Persian lab outputs. The models were not rerun.

The prototype written by Claude Opus 5.5 when building the site. Regenerated under standard conditions by running the lab (python -m sitegen lab --force).

AI assistants are no longer just a fresh novelty. For millions of people, these tools have become the first place they turn to for anything; from drafting emails to finding and debugging programming code. But there is an important catch: these tools are only as effective as the questions you ask them. Learning to write a clear prompt is quickly becoming a core skill; just as crucial as knowing how to use a search engine.


Translator's Note: - novelty: Translated as "fresh novelty". Another interpretation is "a novel and interesting phenomenon"; the text means these tools are no longer just something fun to try out. - debugging code: For the general audience, translated as "finding and debugging code" instead of literal technical jargon. - there's a catch: Means "a hidden condition or flaw", translated as "an important catch".
