It will work until Google either bans one's IP address or disables googletrans by changing the protocol. Since Google's paid service only charges for chars over 500_000 in a month, Google is likely better off leaving the protocol alone and only banning users who would actually pay if signed up. -Original Message- From: Python-list On Behalf Of Quentin Bock Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2021 3:16 PM To: python-list@python.org Subject: translating external files type thing okay, so I'm making a translating program, and I have files set to be translated (they're in Icelandic) and I want all of them to be read in English but I'm not sure how to open the files and translate them at the same time.

Re: translating external files type thing
Hi.
Does this give you any ideas?
#!/usr/bin/env python3
"""Quick translation program - English to Icelandic."""
# import pprint
import googletrans
# pprint.pprint(googletrans.LANGUAGES)
translator = googletrans.Translator()
with open('input-file', 'r') as file_:
english_text = file_.read()
translated = translator.translate(english_text, src='en', dest='is')
with open('output-file', 'w') as file_:
file_.write(translated.text)
My input-file contains:
This is a test of the emergency broadcast system.
I like the music of Björk.
HTH.

translating external files type thing
okay, so I'm making a translating program, and I have files set to be translated (they're in Icelandic) and I want all of them to be read in English but I'm not sure how to open the files and translate them at the same time. I'm also not even sure how to translate an external file to English from another language. I can't show code for this because I don't know if it's possible to do what I'm asking.
