中文說明

這是什麼

AI 生成的中文有一組可辨識的統計慣性：假對比、破折號濫用、三項式排比、空轉的話語標記、每段收尾的微型總結。單獨看都不算錯，堆疊起來就是「AI 味」。本規範逐條列出這些慣性，禁用或限用，並附生成後的強制自檢清單。核心原則只有一條：每個修辭手段都必須賺回自己的位置。

裝進 Claude Code 之後，任何以繁體中文產出連續文字的任務（翻譯、撰稿、長篇回覆）會自動套用。

規範涵蓋

• 禁用與限用清單（第 1–11 條）：「不是 X 而是 Y」假辯證、破折號、冒號（帽句、擂鼓式宣告）、三項式排比、空轉話語標記、貼標語彙（賦能、打造、旨在）、結構強迫症（濫用列點、加粗、小標題）、開場與收場公式、修辭性設問、贅詞「一個」、框式介詞。
• 翻譯專用（第 12–13 條）：歐化句式的還原——關係子句拆句、「被」字句改寫、代名詞刪減，以及慣用直譯句型的替代方案。忠實優先於流暢：原文刻意的修辭不在清理之列。
• 臺灣用語規範（第 14–16 條）：支語過濾對照表，按資訊科技、互聯網黑話、音樂與音訊工程、數學科學、學術日常分組；表外詞彙的判斷原則；英文命名禁止無意義的拼音音譯。
• 標點規範（第 17–18 條）：中文行文一律全形，唯英文與英文之間的標點用半形；引號只留提及、術語首現、引文、篇章名四種本職。
• 正向原則與自檢：動詞驅動、短句節奏、具體優於抽象、信任讀者、有立場；產出前強制執行十一項逐條掃描。

安裝

git clone https://github.com/allenloves/de-ai-tone.git ~/.claude/skills/de-ai-tone

Claude Code 讀取 SKILL.md 的 description 自動觸發；也可在對話中以 /de-ai-tone 手動載入。

背景

規範出自實際的翻譯與寫作工作，其中包括一部十六世紀音樂理論論著的英譯中全書專案。條目的演進方式是：發現一個實例，收一條規則，配一個可執行的判準（刪除測試、稻草人測試）。

What this is

AI-generated Chinese prose carries a recognizable set of statistical habits: fake dialectic contrasts, em-dash overuse, triadic parallelism, throat-clearing discourse markers, a miniature summary at the end of every paragraph. None of them is wrong in isolation; stacked, they read unmistakably as machine output. This guide enumerates those habits and bans or rations them, ending with a mandatory post-generation checklist. The whole thing rests on one principle: every rhetorical device must earn its place.

Installed as a Claude Code skill, it applies automatically to any task that produces running text in Traditional Chinese.

What it covers

• Bans and rations (rules 1–11): fake “not X but Y” dialectics, em-dashes, colons (topic-label sentence openers, drumroll announcements), triadic parallelism, empty discourse markers, buzzword vocabulary, structural compulsions (bullet points, bold, headings), formulaic openings and closings, rhetorical self-questioning, article-calque “一個”, frame prepositions calqued from English.
• Translation-specific (rules 12–13): undoing Europeanized syntax — splitting relative clauses, rewriting passive constructions, trimming pronouns — plus alternatives to stock calque patterns. Fidelity outranks fluency: deliberate rhetoric in the source is not cleaned up.
• Taiwan usage (rules 14–16): a filter table of PRC vocabulary versus Taiwan equivalents, grouped by field (IT, internet-industry jargon, music and audio engineering, mathematics, academic and daily life); judgment principles for words outside the table; a ban on meaningless pinyin transliteration when naming things in English.
• Punctuation (rules 17–18): full-width punctuation throughout Chinese text, half-width only between English and English; quotation marks restricted to their four real jobs — mention, first use of a term, direct quotation, titles.
• Positive principles and self-check: verb-driven sentences, short-sentence rhythm, concrete over abstract, trusting the reader, taking a stance; eleven mandatory scans before any text ships.

Install

git clone https://github.com/allenloves/de-ai-tone.git ~/.claude/skills/de-ai-tone

Claude Code triggers the skill from the description in SKILL.md; you can also load it manually with /de-ai-tone.

Background

The rules come from real translation and writing work, including a complete English-to-Chinese translation of a sixteenth-century music treatise. Each entry follows the same pattern: a habit observed in the wild, a rule against it, and an executable test (deletion test, straw-man test) to decide borderline cases.

The guide itself is written in Traditional Chinese — the ruleset is the content, and its own prose follows every rule it states.
