SPRINKLE evenly with marshmallows and chocolate chunks. Bake an additional 3 to 5 minutes or until marshmallows begin to puff. Press reserved graham pieces gently into marshmallows. Cool in pan on wire rack.
LIFT out of pan onto cutting board using foil handles. Cut into 36 bars.

How do you want it translated? Into another language?
I'm not making fun of you, but to me the recipe is self-explanatory.
However, I think you might prefer simply tipping the baking pan, once it is almost cook, onto your cutting rack. I think it will break apart if you attempt to lift it out.
Make a even layer of maeshmallows and chocolate chunks/chips.
Bake it further for 3/5 minutes till marshmallows melt.
Press graham pieces(reserved for now) on maeshmallows.
Cool the whole thing on wire rack.
Remove the preperation adter it is cooled out of the pan on to the cutting board.(Hold it with foil edges for ease)
Cut into the bars
Google has a great translator. On the home page near the search bar, there is a button called language tools. You can translate into and from many different languages.
Hi there. You make a good point: this is turgid recipe-speak which is unhelpful. I would not know how to "sprinkle" marshmallows *evenly* vs chocolate chunks to save my life, and I bake professionally. You don't give the recipe you're complaining about, so with regard to the 'mallows vs chunks, even things out the best you can by eye, spatially.
The 3-5 minutes vs 'puffing' thing you will encounter more often as an instruction. Ovens are temperamental little tikes, so the instruction gives you two benchmarks: the time (all things being equal, it should all happen within that frame) or, alternatively, 'if you observe this behaviour' even though the time stated has not elapsed, then do [whatever follows].
Re: graham pieces, rest assured the poor lad has not been massacred: it be the biscuits of that name. :-)
Cool-on-rack: the structure of what you've baked remains prone to disintegration until fully cool, so don't unmould what you've made from the baking pan the moment it comes out of the oven. Cool the whole kit-&-caboodle on the rack first for it to solidify.
The foil handles: at some point the recipe has asked you to create a foil cradle before you started, in the pan beneath the thing you've baked, to make lifting out more predictable?
Hope this helps some of the way at least.
