SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

A corpus-first, bidirectional Kabardian↔Russian translation skill that learns from 292k real translation pairs and falls back to dictionaries when needed.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Corpus-first translation (Rus→KBD and KBD→Rus): prioritizes real-world patterns from the corpus.
  • Dictionary fallback: uses dictionaries only as a backup when corpus data is insufficient.
  • Morphology-aware generation: ensures Kabardian outputs follow SOV order and proper morphology.
  • Explainability through patterns: copies proven translation patterns from verified examples.

Quick Start

Translate Russian to Kabardian: "Я вижу дом" or Kabardian to Russian: "Сэ унэр слъагъу".

FAQPage Schema
How do I translate between Kabardian and Russian bidirectionally?

Kabardian↔Russian bidirectional translation uses a corpus-first approach, prioritizing patterns from 292k verified translation pairs. It translates in both directions (Russian→Kabardian and Kabardian→Russian) while maintaining proper Kabardian SOV word order and morphology, falling back to dictionaries when corpus data is insufficient.

What is corpus-first translation and why does it matter?

Corpus-first translation prioritizes real-world translation patterns extracted from verified language pairs over generalized rules. This approach ensures translations reflect actual usage patterns and contextual accuracy, with dictionary lookup only as a fallback when corpus coverage is incomplete.

Can I use this for Russian to Kabardian translation with accurate morphology?

Yes. The Skill enforces Kabardian SOV word order and morphological rules during generation, ensuring outputs follow grammatical constraints specific to Kabardian even when translating from Russian source text.

How does this handle translations when corpus coverage is incomplete?

When the 292k verified translation pairs don't contain matching patterns, the Skill falls back to dictionary lookup. This hybrid approach ensures coverage for both common phrases and edge cases, though dictionary results may lack contextual nuance.

What makes corpus-derived translation different from rule-based machine translation?

Corpus-derived translation learns from actual translation examples rather than applying predetermined grammar rules. It discovers how native speakers handle real-world phrases, producing more natural outputs and capturing idiomatic patterns that rule-based systems often miss.
