| Challenge: | Existing MT evaluation frameworks fail to capture dialect- and culture-specific errors in diglossic languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a hierarchical error taxonomy for diagnosing MT errors through six linguistic levels: sociolinguistics, pragmatics, semantics, morphosyntax, orthography, and graphetics. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework produces 6,113 labeled error spans across 3,495 unique erroneous sentences . it is language-agnostic and can be easily applied to or adapted for other languages. |
