Abstract

This study aims to construct a Chinese-English parallel corpus of Sichuan's intangible cultural heritage (ICH) archives to facilitate the protection, inheritance, and international exchange of ICH. Through field research, literature review, and the application of digital technology, this project analyzes the current state of Sichuan's ICH archives, discusses the construction plan for the Chinese-English corpus, and proposes strategies to enhance the internationalization level of ICH inheritance and exchange. The research results indicate that the construction of the Chinese-English corpus is of great significance for the digital protection of ICH resources, optimization of translation practices, and promotion of cultural heritage.
