Efficient translating of social media posts

Abstract:

Mechanisms are provided to implement an efficient translating mechanism to efficiently translating social media posts. A source language to be used to translate the social media post is identified based on words within the social media post. A highest classification is identified and the social media post is translated from the source language to a target language using a translation level associated with the highest classification. In the translation, each word and its related meaning in the target language are identified from a multi-language data structure; each word is categorized into its associated part of speech; a sentence is generated in the target language; and natural language processing is performed on each sentence in the target language to identity the existence of ambiguous connotations. Responsive to each sentence failing have any ambiguous connotations, a social medial post is generated in the target language utilizing the generated sentences.
