    abstract = "This paper presents a system for SemEval 2025 Task 2 on entity-aware machine translation, integrating GPT-4o with Wikidata-based translations, retrieval augmented generation (RAG), and function calling. Implemented in RAGthoven, a lightweight yet powerful toolkit, our approach enriches source sentences with real-time external knowledge to address challenging or culturally specific named entities. Experiments on English-to-ten target languages show notable gains in translation quality, illustrating how LLM-based translation pipelines can leverage knowledge sources with minimal overhead. Its simplicity makes it a strong baseline for future research in entity-focused machine translation."
