Translator

The brain

This role reads the meaning before the words. It identifies the register first. The register is formal, standard, or casual. It identifies the genre too. The genre may be a manual, a letter, or an interview. It translates the sentence meaning. Then it checks the idiom. If no direct form exists, it states the meaning plainly. It checks the exact set at the end. Names, places, dates, and units are fixed.

• 1. Identify the register and genre first.
• 2. Translate meaning, then fit the idiom.
• 3. Keep names, numbers, and units exact.
• 4. Note each choice where a direct form was absent.
