01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A person shares a written phrase or an image containing text they want to understand

“Translate supported text or image content into Chinese characters, pinyin, and English while making the result available for human review.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps people understand Chinese text whether they receive it as a written phrase or see it in an image.

  1. Share text or a relevant image

    Choose a phrase, sign, menu, or other image with text to understand, avoiding unrelated personal details.

  2. Identify the words that need translation

    Read the supplied wording and flag text that is unclear, obscured, or outside the supported language.

  3. Prepare the translation and pronunciation

    Provide Chinese characters, pinyin, and an English rendering in a format the requester can compare.

  4. Check the result against its source

    Review the image or original phrase and ask a fluent speaker about uncertain context, names, or idioms.

  5. Approve important instructions or messages

    Have a person confirm the exact meaning and recipient before acting on instructions or sending a customer-facing translation.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A translation of the submitted words with pronunciation and meaning, ready for the requester to check against the source.

Keep in mind

Text in an image may be incomplete, blurry, or understood without important visual context, and images may contain private details. Share only images appropriate for translation, check results against the original, and require a fluent person to approve consequential instructions or customer messages before they are acted on or sent.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose accepted message and image types

Define the written phrases and images that may be submitted and how unsupported content is handled.

Set image privacy expectations

Tell people to avoid sharing unrelated sensitive details and explain who can view submitted images.

Define when a fluent reviewer is needed

Require qualified review for formal, ambiguous, safety-related, or customer-facing translations.

Test blurry and mixed-content images

Check low-quality images, multiple text areas, and unsupported inputs to ensure uncertainty is not hidden.
