Trust and transparency
Method
The lunyu.ai editorial method: source text, guide, translation, index, and local reflection kept in separate layers.
Layering principle
Each passage page separates source text, modern Chinese guide, James Legge translation, notes, related indexes, and local reflection. AI or rule-generated content must never be mixed into the source text or translations.
The listening page now includes recorded female-voice chapter audio for Xue Er; passage-level pinyin is not promised across the full site before review.
Corrections
When a typo, truncation, translation mismatch, or interpretive error is found, the workflow returns to public-domain sources and site data; classic text is not filled from memory.
Correction path: cite the exact URL, passage number, and issue. The public correction page is https://www.lunyu.ai/en/method#corrections.
