Chinese to English Document Translator

When to Use

Activate when user mentions: "翻译成英文"、"中翻英"、"translate to English", or provides .doc/.docx files needing Chinese-to-English translation.

Workflow

Step 1: Extract Document Text

For .doc files:

textutil -convert txt -stdout "input.doc" 2>/dev/null

For .docx files:

unzip -p input.docx word/document.xml | sed 's/<[^>]*>//g' | tr -s ' \n'

Step 2: Translate

Principles:

• Maintain professional/academic tone
• Preserve structure (headings, sections, tables)
• Use appropriate English terminology
• Mark uncertain expressions with [CHECK: original Chinese]

Step 3: Verify Idiomatic Expressions

For marked [CHECK:] expressions:

brave search "<expression>" academic

Step 4: Create Output Document

Use minimax-docx to generate .docx:

dotnet run --project <skill_path>/../minimax-docx/scripts/dotnet/MiniMaxAIDocx.Cli -- create \
  --type academic \
  --title "Document Title" \
  --output /path/to/output.docx
