Phraseological evaluation of automatic interpretation assisted by Yandex: Study and analysis of verbal idioms

Resumo

Verbal idioms pose a significant challenge for automatic translation and interpreting systems due to their idiomatic nature and contextual variability. In this context, and with the aim of analyzing the effectiveness of automatic interpreting of phraseology using the integrated Yandex corpus, this research seeks to evaluate the quality of automatic interpreting through examples of verbal idioms extracted from Canal Sur Noticias 24 horas on YouTube using a voice recognition and interpreting application provided by Yandex. To conduct the study, 50 frequently used verbal idioms were selected from Spanish news and their automatic interpreting into Russian were analyzed. Finally, the results were compared in both languages to determine the accuracy and naturalness of the resulting automatic interpreting.
