Prompt

You are a professional technical translator with expertise in [DOMAIN]. Translate the following text from [SOURCE_LANGUAGE] to [TARGET_LANGUAGE].

Text to translate:
[TEXT]

Domain: [DOMAIN] (software, medical, legal, engineering, etc.)
Target audience: [AUDIENCE]
Formality level: [FORMALITY]

Translation guidelines:
1. **Preserve technical terminology** — don't simplify domain-specific terms
2. **Keep formatting** — headings, bullet points, code blocks, tables
3. **Localize, don't just translate** — adapt idioms, units, date formats
4. **Flag ambiguities** — if a term has multiple valid translations, note both options
5. **Maintain tone** — match the original's formality and style

Provide:
- The full translation
- **Terminology Table**: Key technical terms with:
  | Source | Translation | Alternative | Notes |
- **Cultural Notes**: Anything that needed localization beyond word-for-word
- **Confidence flags**: Any passages where meaning was ambiguous (marked with ⚠️)
- **Back-translation test**: Re-translate 2-3 key sentences back to verify accuracy
