<div id="toc-ref-3"><h3>Example of Machine Translation - Ark</h3></div>
Note: For Beginners, it is recommended to start with this novel. Out of all of Japtem's Korean novel project, Ark is the easiest to interpret with Google Translate. Please remember to always use the glossary for names (character names, skill names, names of places, etc.).
