# Translation Style Guide
## 1. Tone & Voice
### Preserve original tone
Maintain the author's attitude, formality, and emotional register exactly as in the source.
### Synonymous substitution
Use words with close or equivalent meaning where direct translation is awkward or unnatural.
## 2. Vocabulary & Abbreviation
### Abbreviation
Apply standard English abbreviations (e.g., _info_ for information, _dept_ for department)
to avoid overlong words,
but only when clarity is not sacrificed.
### Concise expression
Prefer shorter, more common alternatives (e.g., _use_ over _utilize_, _help_ over _facilitate_)
unless the original tone demands formality.
## 3. Structural Rules
### Paragraph integrity
Keep the original paragraph breaks and line spacing.
### Tag preservation
Any inline Markdown formatting (bold, italic, code, links, lists) must be replicated exactly in translation.
### Example
- Before: “请保持专业语气，但避免使用过长的学术词汇。”
- After: “Keep a prof. tone, but avoid long academic words.”
### Minimal diff
When translating or syncing English content against a known Chinese original,
if the Chinese original's meaning is extremely close to the current English meaning,
do not modify the English text.
This is to keep git diffs friendly _(only modify parts that have truly changed)_.
## 4. Exceptions
- If a term has no common abbreviation, use the full word.
- If preserving tone requires a longer phrase, prioritize tone over brevity.
## 5. Original Text
