Chinese poetry, with its rich history, profound symbolism, and intricate linguistic structures, presents a unique challenge for translators. To effectively convey the beauty and depth of these works, translators must not only possess a mastery of both Chinese and the target language but also a deep understanding of the linguistic nuances that shape Chinese poetry.
