Translating text from one language to another

This prompt helps you translate text between different languages while maintaining the original meaning and tone. Rather than producing word-for-word translations that can sound unnatural, it leverages ChatGPT to create translations that feel authentic in the target language.

How to Use

1. Specify the source language in the {{language1}} field
2. Specify the target language in the {{language2}} field
3. Provide the text you want translated in the {{text}} field
4. Submit the prompt to receive a contextually appropriate translation

Variables Explained

• {{language1}}: The original language of your text (e.g., "English," "Spanish," "Japanese")
• {{language2}}: The language you want your text translated into (e.g., "French," "German," "Portuguese")
• {{text}}: The complete text that needs translation - can be anything from a single sentence to multiple paragraphs

Tips for Better Translations

• Be specific with language variants when needed (e.g., "Brazilian Portuguese" instead of just "Portuguese")
• Include context if the text contains culturally specific references
• For longer texts, consider breaking them into meaningful paragraphs for better results
• For specialized content (legal, medical, technical), mention this in your prompt for more accurate terminology
• If preserving a specific tone is important (formal, casual, poetic), you can add this as a note after your text

Example

Translate the following text from English to Japanese: "I'm looking forward to meeting you next week. Let's grab coffee and catch up on everything that's happened since we last saw each other." Avoid using literal translations, and aim to convey the same meaning and tone as the original text.
