DeepL has served me well on desktop and mobile. Free chatgpt is not bad either.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Books such as dictionaries (or dictionary websites), or we ask friends etc who speak those language
Edit: Glosbe is also a good option as it's translated by actual people, not machine learning rubbish.

I use mainly dict.cc because it's not supporting linguee/deepl monopoly but I also use linguee if dictcc reaches its limit.
I don't like the situation.

Of the "free as in freedom" options: Wiktionary and patience. DeepL is not FOSS, and I suppose most other similar sites aren't.

The problem is that it’s hard to find tools that actually handle full text well, with real context and an understanding of how language is used. It would be awesome to see more FOSS efficient and reliable tools available, but so far we're forced to use what we have

FOSS wasn’t a criterion in the OP’s request, but I’m all for FOSS options whenever they’re available. Unfortunately, for now, there aren’t any efficient and reliable tools out there
I've been desperately waiting for one for the last 15 years. -

Edit: Yup! Looks like a couple transposed letters

https://glosbe.com/Thanks! Didn't notice the s and the b were the other way round!

I've been desperately waiting for one for the last 15 years.This is on /c/Foss so I assume the OP was asking about Foss options for translation.

wrote last edited by [email protected]To me, the go-to answer used to be DeepL, but more recently it's Kagi Translate.
It's really accurate for languages I do speak (English to German and vice versa) and allows for recorded speech, although that seems to be reliant on clear talking (my first try of "Hello, what's going on?" was recorded as "Yo, what's going on?") -

I stopped making assumptions based on logic in this world
That said, I’d love to hear about any good FOSS options too. The main issue with Lemmy is that most discussions only get attention for a short time after being posted — even the OPs vanish first. -

Kagi does indeed look promising after a quick test. The options are particularly interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Only the requested captcha is bothering me. -

I've been using kagi translate https://translate.kagi.com/

Only the requested captcha is bothering me.Thank you, it indeed was wrong. Apparently when I set the link to be translate.kagi.com it tried to send me to beehaw.com/translate.kagi.com
Weird but I fixed it now.And yeah, the options are very neat! I don't have a captcha though, but that may be because I'm a paying subscriber to Kagi and thus logged in?

Do you have a subscription with them?

dict.cc looks cool - thanks for the recommendation
