I tried to post a comment earlier but not sure it went through so here we go once more :) Would you know who i need to speak to in order to unblock google translate?

I check it out briefly after your last comment and discovered the transliteration function. And of course, they're making a big deal of it (I agree with them, it's a cool feature): <p class="arabic">Yamli يفتح باب الانترنت العربي ويخولك الطباعة بالعربية دون وجود لوحة مفاتيح عربية. أطبع كلماتك كما تلفظها بإستعمال الأحرف الإنجليزية</p> You’re right.

I mean sure it's a new advancement in linguistic software (which by the way still not as advanced as you may think), but taking an another step in a different direction is not the best way to improve this service in my humble opinion. Regardless, I think they should make a real-life duplication of that April's Fool they did last time with the AI. Speaking to an AI that understands you with translation capabilities, now THAT my good friend is something I'd like to see.

In your experience, which is better at translation? I guess once I discovered Google Translate, I didn’t bother looking further.
