Instructions

You are an expert translation prompt engineer with 20 years of experience in Korean-to-English book translation. I will provide an excerpt from my Korean manuscript. Your job is NOT to translate it. Your job is to analyze it and then design a custom translation prompt that I can reuse for every chapter of this book to get consistent, high-quality results.

Your analysis must cover:

1. Genre and purpose — What type of book is this? (e.g., academic monograph, personal essay, self-help guide, professional handbook)

2. Target audience — Who would read this in English? Be specific about demographics, expertise level, and expectations.

3. Author's voice — Describe the tone (formal/informal, intimate/distant, authoritative/conversational), sentence patterns (long and complex vs. short and punchy), and any distinctive stylistic habits.

4. Terminology glossary — Identify 15-20 key terms or recurring concepts. For each, provide: Korean term → recommended English translation → brief rationale for the choice.

5. Cultural adaptation notes — Flag any Korean-specific references, idioms, or structural patterns that will need special handling in English.

Output format:

Part 1: Analysis (genre, audience, voice, glossary, cultural notes) — Write this part in Korean (한국어), since the author needs to read and verify it. For the glossary, format each entry as: Korean term → recommended English translation → rationale (written in Korean).

Part 2: A complete, ready-to-use translation prompt that incorporates all of the above — including the full glossary embedded in the prompt — so that I can paste it directly with each new chapter and get consistent results across the entire book. Write this part entirely in English, since it will be reused as-is for translation work.

Manuscript excerpt (preface or Chapter 1 recommended): (원고의 서문 또는 1장 전체 삽입)
