Abstract:
This study takes the DeepSeek and ChatGPT translations of the article Guoqing Temple: The Cultural Treasure of Tiantai Mountain as its object, conducting an in-depth comparative analysis of the performance of the two translation technologies in terms of translation accuracy, fluency, and creativity. By carefully examining the translation strategies employed for four-character headings and complex sentences in the text, it explores the differences in translation strategies and effects between the two technologies. The results show that DeepSeek has a greater advantage in creatively presenting cultural connotations, being able to closely align with the cultural context of the original text. Its deep thinking process is highly humanized, demonstrating a unique ability to understand and express cultural nuances. In contrast, ChatGPT excels in language accuracy and fluency, producing smooth and natural translations that conform to English expression habits.
