It’s undeniable that machine translation has been developing at a fast speed. However, language is deeply intertwined with culture, and human translators are better equipped to navigate cultural nuances and sensitivities. They can ensure that translations are culturally appropriate and avoid inadvertently causing offense or misunderstanding. That’s one of the main reasons why human translation is still preferred nowadays.

Linguistic structure differences: Chinese and English have vastly different grammar, syntax, and sentence structures, making translation quite difficult.

Cultural nuances: Certain concepts, idioms, or expressions may not have direct equivalents in the other language, requiring cultural adaptation.

Writing system: The transition from a character-based script to an alphabet-based one (or vice versa) can be complex, especially with the need to convey the correct tones in Romanization for Chinese.

Contextual meaning: Context plays a more significant role in Chinese due to its use of homophones and reliance on implied meanings, requiring translators to understand the broader context to accurately translate the text.
