In today’s fast-paced world, we often find ourselves expressing ideas informally, whether through conversation or casual writing. However, presenting these ideas in a more formal manner can enhance understanding and leave a lasting impression. In this blog post, we’ll explore how to convert informal language into formal and concise forms, using an AI model to assist in the transformation.
Getting Started with the Code
To begin this exciting journey in language transformation, we need to employ a particular set of code that involves the Hugging Face Transformers library. This powerful tool acts as our secret weapon for converting casual phrases into Lincoln-esque eloquence. Here’s how we set it up:
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelWithLMHead
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('BigSalmonInformalToFormalLincoln21')
model = AutoModelWithLMHead.from_pretrained('BigSalmonInformalToFormalLincoln21')
Think of the code above as a recipe. Just like you need to gather ingredients for a delicious dish, you first need the appropriate libraries (ingredients) to translate informal expressions into a refined format. The tokenizer breaks down the input language (like chopping vegetables), while the model processes it (akin to cooking the ingredients together). The end result? A beautifully crafted expression that resonates with formality.
Creating Effective Prompts
Using the model, you can construct prompts that will yield the formalized output you’re aiming for. Here are some examples:
- Informal English: “I am very ready to do that just that.”
- Formal English (Lincoln Style): “You can assure yourself of my readiness to work toward this end.”
Simply provide the informal text, and the model will do the heavy lifting, translating it into a more sophisticated tone. Here’s another example:
- Informal English: “Space is huge and needs to be explored.”
- Formal English (Lincoln Style): “Space awaits traversal, a new world whose boundaries are endless.”
Expanding Vocabulary with ‘Fill Missing Phrase’
Yet, our endeavor doesn’t stop here! We can also utilize the model to fill in contextual gaps, giving a broader perspective. For instance:
- Informal Prompt: “Increasing the number of sidewalks in suburban areas will [MASK].”
- Formal Response: “Increasing the number of sidewalks in suburban areas will (enhance community cohesion).”
Here, the model not only translates but also enriches your text by providing complete ideas.
Troubleshooting Tips
If you run into any challenges during your transformation journey, consider the following troubleshooting ideas:
- Ensure that you have installed the Transformers library and any necessary dependencies.
- Check that your model name is correctly specified; it can often be a simple typographical error that causes an issue.
- If the output seems off, revisit the input and ensure it is clear and correctly set up for formal translation.

Concisely Rephrasing Wordy Sentences
One of the most important skills in communication is being concise. The model can assist in rephrasing wordy sentences into crisp, to-the-point phrases:
- Wordy: “Chancing upon a Linux user is a rare occurrence in the present day.”
- Concise: “Present-day Linux users are rare.”
This transformation helps streamline your communication, making it easier and more effective for the audience to grasp your message.
