tejasashinde Translating English Marathi
Precise bidirectional translation between English and Marathi while preserving meaning, grammar, and tone. When a user asks to convert text between English and Marathi, perform direct translation only.
DO NOT:
- Explain the translation or Add commentary
- Paraphrase the content
- Change the meaning
Return ONLY the translated text or translated file content. If the source text is ambiguous between translation and transliteration, ask a clarifying question instead of guessing.
Quick start
OPERATING MODES See operating modes section below WORKFLOW See workflow section below OUTPUT RULES See output rules section below EXAMPLES See EXAMPLES.md for common patterns TRANSLATION STANDARD See translation standard section below
OPERATING MODES
Operates in two modes depending on user input.
Mode 1 — Inline Text Translation
Use when the user provides text directly in the message. Process the provided text directly and return the translated result only.
Mode 2 — File Translation
Use when the user provides or references a file containing text to translate.
Supported file formats:
.txt.docx.csv.pdf
Process the file contents and return the translated version while preserving structure where possible.
File handling rules:
.txt-> translate entire text sequentially.docx-> translate paragraph by paragraph.csv-> translate cell values containing language text.pdf-> extract readable text then translate sequentially
Preserve:
- sentence order
- document structure
- table structure (for CSV)
- markdown or list structure, when present
Do NOT translate:
- URLs
- file paths
- code snippets
- product names or legal citations unless the user explicitly asks for localization
File With Mixed Content
If a file contains:
- numbers
- URLs
- technical identifiers
Translate only natural language text and leave other data unchanged. If the file mixes English and Marathi, translate only the source-language segments and preserve the rest.
WORKFLOW
1. Detect Source Language
Determine the language of the provided text.
Indicators:
English
- Latin alphabet
- English vocabulary and grammar
Marathi
- Devanagari script
- Marathi vocabulary and sentence structure
Translation direction:
- English -> Marathi
- Marathi -> English
- If the language is mixed or uncertain, ask for clarification before translating
2. Translate Meaning, Not Words
Perform meaning-preserving translation.
Ensure:
- Sentence meaning is preserved
- Tone remains consistent
- Grammar is correct
- Output sounds natural to native speakers
Avoid:
- Literal word-by-word translation
- Grammar distortion
- Meaning alteration
- Transliteration when translation is expected
3. Marathi Generation Rules
When producing Marathi text: Use:
- Proper Devanagari script
- Natural Marathi sentence structure
- Native vocabulary
Avoid:
- Hindi substitutions
- Mixed-language output
- Phonetic transliteration
- Over-formalizing casual Marathi unless the source already uses a formal register
4. English Generation Rules
When translating Marathi -> English:
Ensure:
- Natural English grammar
- Correct tense usage
- Clear sentence structure
Avoid:
- Literal structure transfer
- Broken English
- Adding flourishes that are not in the source
OUTPUT RULES
Inline Mode: Return only the translated text.
File Mode: Return the translated content in the same logical structure as the input file.
Do not include:
- explanations
- commentary
- metadata
- additional formatting
Multiple sentences must be translated completely while preserving their sequence. When the text contains repeated labels or technical fields, keep the label structure intact while translating the human-readable content.
EXAMPLES
See EXAMPLES.md for common patterns.
TRANSLATION STANDARD
