"Our universal translator hasn't reached all the capabilities you know from Star Trek quite yet"
You Sir, are a master of understatement!
Automatic web page translation is certainly one of the most important technological advances in global communications - perhaps THE most important. If only it were RELIABLE.
It seems bizarre therefore, that Google has left this service practically without technical support of any kind, leaving the eager users mired in unexplained difficulties.
Three days ago a report was posted in the Google Translate help forum that the hover function had stopped working, and there has been no response from anyone at Google yet.
Given the shortcomings of the page translation engine, the loss of the hover function makes reading anything important with Google page translate impractical.
Before this major flaw arose, my chief complaint was that Google Translate would inexplicably report that a given page, plainly in a foreign language could not be translated because:
"translation from English to English is not supported"
This has been particularly mysterious on Facebook, where some pages have been successfully translated, while others display the error message above, and yet others display garbage characters.
I can only wish that I could find a someone at Google to explain this phenomenon for me and perhaps even offer a solution.
I'd like to suggest that making half-baked translations of the several thousand obscure and little used languages of the world could wait until the bugs are ironed out in translating the dozen or so languages used by 95% of the world's literate population.
I have frequently read Google page translations of German articles on Spiegel.de in which the meaning of key statements is exactly the reverse of the original. I shudder to think what misinformation is created in the minds of users who don't know enough German grammar to detect such errors.
That said, I applaud the creation of this blog, and hope that it will attract a loyal and thoughful following.
PS. if only the comment entry window were as large as the preview one, participation would be much less of a chore.
I would like to know how to get the "tu" form of a verb instead of the "vous" form in English to French translation. Same thing applies to many other language pairs.
I do not understand one thing, google chrome beta is supposed to translate so I removed the translate extension. I had to reinstall it because chrome wasnt doing automatically after the first few times.
My biggest problem with the new Google Translate is that it translates as you type. On top of being unnecessary, it slows down the process--often it will be searching for a translation while I'm typing and as a result, it will not register my keystrokes, so if I'm trying to type "something," for example, it will only register "sothg" and I end up having to try again.
I love the Google Translate widget and am working on implementing it at work on an international development site. Can you provide the code so that the languages in the drop-down select are themselves in that language. I didn't see it on the Google Translate site. Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
When Google Translate first came out with their Macedonian translation, I was overjoyed! It worked reasonably well -- enough to understand the context -- and that was fine for my needs. However, for around the last two months, it doesn't work at all! When I place the Macedonian text in the box above and change the language pair to Macedonian ==> English, I constantly get the Macedonian language repeated below with no attempt made at English. I've tried accessing this from different computers to confirm that it wasn't some glitch on my system, but I get the same results. I would very much appreciate it if someone from the Google Translate team would restore the functionality of Macedonian please. I do hope I am leaving this comment in the right location and would appreciate any acknowledgement (public or private) to confirm that this has been read. Thanks again for your time and assistance!
