    <abstract>The paper presents an investigation into the effectiveness of pre-trained language models, Siku-RoBERTa and RoBERTa, for Classical Chinese to Modern Standard Mandarin and Classical Chinese to English translation tasks. The English translation model resulted in unsatisfactory performance due to the small dataset, while the Modern Standard Mandarin model gave reasonable results.</abstract>
