Translation

[AFreakingCookie (Hank)]

We all know that google translate is so so, but wouldn’t it be nice if a translation option on the forums was added? And you could type your language (english for me) and then you could select a language to switch it too?
Tell me your thoughts

This would be nice, like you choose your language, but I don't know if how it would work, if someone wrote a thread on English, and then translate it on Spanish without translator?

I get that it's convenient and all, but is it worth implementing since you can do the same thing by just opening a new tab, search "(language) to (language)" in Google & paste in the text you want roughly translated?
It's an alright option to have, but broken translations (from G translate) seem kind of off to have as a setting on the forums since it's usually not accurate.

Sometimes the translation isn't correct.

Isn't there a google translate option for the page you're on? Grammar might be off, but you can understand it right?

That's for google chrome, I think.

Yep

I'm pretty sure I disclaimed that near the end of my message. Anyways, that's a problem with any auto translator out there. Every single one of them will have grammatical errors & incorrect word usage.
If Cube implements one, they'd have to base it off of an existing translator, meaning that there's going to be grammatical errors regardless, resulting in confusing translations.
A possibility to go about this is to have community translating, but that's messy & it may not reach most threads (especially if it's from English to another language).

That would be very complicated for cube to make, in my opinion.
