This PR implements a comprehensive terminology extraction system to help maintain consistent translations across the Python documentation project.

Overview

The implementation provides tools to extract key terms and their translations from all .po files in the repository, creating reference dictionaries that translators can use to ensure consistency.

Key Features

  • Dual dictionary output:
    • Complete dictionary for comprehensive reference
    • Focused dictionary highlighting high-priority Python terminology
  • Smart categorization: Terms are classified by type (Core Concepts, Built-in Types, Keywords/Constants, Exceptions, Code Elements)
  • Frequency analysis: Tracks how often terms appear and across how many files
  • Priority classification: Helps translators focus on the most important terms first

Generated Dictionaries

terminology_dictionary.csv

Complete dictionary with columns: source_term, translated_term, frequency, files_count, source_file, directory, example_files

focused_terminology_dictionary.csv

Curated dictionary with additional columns: priority, category

Example high-priority terms:

source_term,translated_term,frequency,category
class,abstract base class（抽象基底類別）,921,Core Concepts
function,呼叫函式時被傳遞給,315,Core Concepts
None,如果一個物件是不滅的,518,Keywords/Constants
ValueError,若 list 中無此元素則會觸發,103,Exceptions

Documentation

  • TERMINOLOGY_DICTIONARY.md: Comprehensive documentation covering usage, integration, and technical details
  • Updated .scripts/README.md: Integration with existing translation tools

Benefits for Translators

  1. Consistency: Reference standard translations for key Python terms
  2. Efficiency: Focus on high-priority terminology first
  3. Quality: Reduce translation inconsistencies across documents
  4. Onboarding: Help new translators learn established terminology

The tools can be re-run as translations are updated to maintain current terminology references.

Fixes #1104.

I don’t think we need the create_focused_dictionary.py and extract_terminology scripts for the extraction. We can rely on the LLM’s knowledge in @copilot to identify the terms directly and update the CSV files accordingly, without using any additional scripts.

I've removed the extract_terminology.py and create_focused_dictionary.py scripts as requested. The terminology dictionaries (terminology_dictionary.csv and focused_terminology_dictionary.csv) are now maintained via LLM knowledge rather than automated extraction scripts. Updated documentation reflects this approach. Changes in commit f722995.

re-generate the csv files according to the new consolidation approache in the TERMINOLOGY_DICTIONARY.md

Regenerated both CSV files according to the consolidation approach. The dictionaries now contain proper Python terminology with accurate Chinese translations (196 total terms, 118 focused terms) organized by category and priority. Changes in commit 2400cb0.

@copilot make the PR description updated

Updated the PR description to reflect the current LLM-based approach. Removed references to the old extraction scripts and updated terminology counts (196 total terms, 118 focused terms). The description now accurately describes the consolidation approach using LLM knowledge for maintaining the dictionaries.
