UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

מִי־אַ֣תְּ

who? you

Naomi's question to Ruth, “Who are you, my daughter?” appears to be an idiom that probably asks about her current status. In other words, it is likely that Naomi is asking if Ruth is now betrothed to be married. Alternate translation: “How is it with you” or “How did it go for you”

Note 2 topic: translate-kinship

בִּתִּ֑⁠י

daughter,my

Ruth is actually Naomi’s daughter-in-law, but Naomi calls her my daughter as an endearment. Use an appropriate endearment in your language, if there is one. Alternate translation: “my dear one” or “my daughter-in-law”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אֵ֛ת כָּל־אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָֽשָׂה־לָ֖⁠הּ הָ⁠אִֽישׁ

DOM all/each/any/every which/who he/it_had_made to/for=her/it the=man

Most of what the man had done for her was verbal. That is, the main thing was that Boaz promised Ruth that he would make sure that she and Naomi were taken care of. If it would be helpful in your language, you could indicate that what Boaz did included the things that he said to her. Alternate translation: “everything that the man had promised to do for her”
