SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Korean institutional readers (NPS fund managers, KIC executives, ROK officials) instantly detect machine-translation tells, which destroys the credibility of policy and finance writing. This Skill produces English-Korean translations of NPSI working papers and LinkedIn captions that read as native institutional Korean, not translated text. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Register enforcement: Applies 한다체 for working paper body text, 합니다체 for LinkedIn captions, and mirrors source register for direct quotes, with ROK orthography by default and DPRK orthography preserved in quotes. - Canonical terminology: Consults a glossary of NPSI proper nouns (NPS, KIC, KOGAS, 도산안창호함, 에스콰이몰트) and Korean numbering conventions (만/억/조) to prevent unit-shift errors like rendering 6 trillion as 6,000십억. - Pre-delivery QA: Runs an eight-point checklist covering register drift, numerical accuracy, proper noun consistency, calque detection, quote integrity, and slur scanning before any output is delivered. - Use Case: Translate an English working paper section on Canada-Korea energy cooperation into publishable 한다체 Korean, with all institutions glossed on first use and every figure converted to Korean numbering. ## Quick Start Translate this working paper abstract into Korean for NPSI publication, using 한다체 register and the canonical glossary forms.

Frequently Asked Questions about npsi-korean-translation

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I translate an English policy paper into professional Korean?▼

Read the full passage before translating, select 한다체 register for body text, use Sino-Korean vocabulary for institutional terms, and convert all numbers to 만/억/조 units. Gloss acronyms like 국민연금공단(NPS) on first use, then run a QA checklist for calques and register drift.

What Korean speech level should LinkedIn captions use?▼

Korean LinkedIn captions use 합니다체 (deferential formal, -습니다/-합니다 endings) because the reader feels directly addressed. 한다체 reads cold and journalistic in social contexts, while 해요체 reads as a personal blog.

How do I convert English numbers to Korean numbering correctly?▼

Korean groups numbers by 10,000: 만 (10⁴), 억 (10⁸), 조 (10¹²). Write 6 trillion as 6조, not 6,000십억, and 280 million as 2억 8천만, not 280만. Unit-shift errors are the most common high-stakes translation mistake.

Should DPRK source quotes be normalized to South Korean spelling?▼

No. Preserve DPRK orthography inside quotes, such as 로동신문 instead of 노동신문 and 력사 instead of 역사. The orthographic difference signals the source's origin to careful readers, and normalizing it discards that information.

What are the signs of machine-translated Korean text?▼

Common tells include 가지다 noun calques (회의를 가지다), English-style passives (~에 의해), floating pronouns like 그것, literal idiom translations, and overuse of 그리고 between clauses. Reading sentences aloud reveals broken Korean rhythm from imported English structure.

When should a translation be refused or flagged?▼

Refuse when the source text is not provided, when critical proper nouns cannot be verified against the glossary, or when the source contains slurs NPSI would not publish in its own voice. Flag unverified terms in translator notes rather than guessing.
