Translation & Commentary Process翻译与点评流程
Every English rendition on this site is my own translation. I cross-check Qing block prints, modern collations, and Taiwanese annotated editions before producing a draft. Footnotes explain rhetorical devices, historical references, and vernacular idioms so readers can move between languages without losing nuance. 本站的英文译稿均由我亲自翻译。每次改写都会对照清刻本、现代点校本与台湾注本，再撰写初稿。脚注会说明修辞、史事与俗语，帮助读者在双语之间保留语感。
Beyond translation, I provide chapter summaries, moral analysis, and production notes describing how each illustration or motion experiment was created. 除翻译外，我还编写章节提要、伦理分析与插画/动效制作记，将改编思路透明化。
