Rule Explanation

Explanation

Segment the Chinese expression into semantic units first, map each unit to its canonical Chinglish token, and retain that unit order. Natural English is shown only as a comprehension reference.

Correct Examples

  1. 今天 / 我 / 回 / 家 → Today / I / go / home
  2. 现在 / 你 / 非常 / 忙 → Now / you / very / busy
  3. 昨天 / 我 / 买 / 手机 → Yesterday / I / buy / phone

Incorrect or Boundary Example

Do not reorder Today I go home to I go home today merely because the latter resembles natural English.
