watchr12 1,464 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Can anyone suggest a good site for text translation? Google Translate has limited how much text it will translate at one time (used to be 5k characters, now much less). Also, I'd prefer not to have Google looking over my shoulder. I'm not looking for something that will translate a web page on the fly, but where text can be dropped into a field and translated into English. Thanks! Quote Link to post
Paulypeeps 4,992 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I prefer Bing translate to Google translate - it works better. Not sure what the character limit is though. Quote Link to post
watchr12 1,464 Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Google limits each translation to 5000 characters, so it can take a while to translate anything longer than a fairly short story. Thanks for the info! Quote Link to post

It used to work OK, but hasn't been worth it since they reduced the amount of text that can be processed in the field. Also, I'm staying away from Google-anything as much as possible. 15 hours ago, kalle2020 said: I can really recommend deepl (link) . Thanks, will check it out. Quote Link to post
Paulypeeps 4,992 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I usually try google first for most things then move on when it does not work, that is how I ended up at Bing. Quote Link to post
