As Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)makes further strides onto the international stage,its globalization process is mainly impeded by three major obstacles:difficulties in terminological translation,conflicts arising from cultural differences,and barriers of international standards.This paper puts forward corresponding strategies for each of these obstacles.For the translation of TCM terms,it is suggested to adopt a method combined with AI information technology to achieve the accuracy and standardization of TCM term translation.In the face of the challenge of cultural conflicts,it is emphasized to highlight both the scientific and cultural attributes of TCM so as to improve its acceptance in foreign cultures.To overcome the problem of standard barriers,it is emphasized to take multiple measures to promote the establishment of TCM standards and certification systems recognized by the international community.Only when TCM obtains widespread recognition from the international community and is reasonably applied under the international legal framework can it gain a foothold in the global medical system and truly achieve internationalization.
