Implication

This study compares translation difficulties and strategies of AI and student-translators for expressions of impossibility, indicating notable differences in performance.

Key Points

Artificial Intelligence translated expressions of impossibility more accurately than students, achieving 52% correct translations.
The most common strategy employed by both AI and students was word-for-word translation, which often led to culturally awkward translations.
Students made errors due to limited mastery of English and lack of exposure to idioms, leaving many expressions untranslated.
AI provided better handling of straightforward expressions but struggled with conceptual alignment in translations, highlighting cultural gaps.
