AI-102 Implement generative AI solutions Practice Question
You need to translate a document from English to Spanish using Azure OpenAI. Which parameter should you include in the prompt to specify the target language?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often confuse the system message (which sets overall behavior) with the user message (which carries the specific instruction), leading them to incorrectly select system message as the parameter for specifying the target language.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
user message
In Azure OpenAI, the user message is where you provide the instruction or context for the model, including specifying the target language for translation. By including 'Translate the following English text to Spanish' in the user message, you direct the model to perform the language translation task. The other parameters control generation behavior (temperature, max_tokens) or set the model's persona (system message), but do not specify the target language.
