  • Publication number: 20250131210
    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for verifying translations of text in a source language to target text in a target language. A source similarity score is calculated indicating a similarity between a first text and second text in a source language. A target similarity score is calculated between translated first text, comprising a translation of the first text in a target language, and translated second text, comprising a translation of the second text in the target language. A determination is made whether the translation of the first text to the translated first text is of an inappropriate translation quality based on the source similarity score and the target similarity score. Indication is made of indicating the inappropriate translation quality in response to determining the inappropriate translation quality.
