On the Systematic Challenges of Culturally Loaded Machine Translation: Dream of the Red Chamber as the Cultural Lens
Culturally loaded translation poses unique challenges for machine translation (MT), as meanings are deeply embedded in socio-cultural contexts beyond surface linguistic forms. Although large language models (LLMs) have enabled MT systems to achieve human-like quality in many scenarios, their ability to handle culturally loaded expressions remains underexplored. In this study, we systematically investigate the challenges posed by culturally loaded translation in LLM-based MT systems. We construct a Chinese-Japanese bilingual dataset from the culturally representative corpus Dream of the Red Cha
