This is an amazing tool my friend.. thanks for the post keep it up
Thank you so much...
It’s a good idea, especially for people who’s English is not good enough. Being able to write in English will make their posts reach more readers.
I just have one thought: don’t you think it will increase plagiarism through translation? (I don’t know if this is a problem of the same level as ‘normal’ plagiarism, but I’m not sure how Google, Cheetah or the Steemcleaners think about that...)
No dear it will not increase plagiarism.. This extension is just meant to facilitate people who have less or no knowledge about different languages.. I have seen many posts having really bad English. So, this tool is for those who have problems with languages..
Don't get me wrong: I'm really happy with this tool because it gives people with a limited knowledge of English a chance to reach a broader audience, which is a very good thing.
I just vaguely remember reading a post (or maybe just the title of the post) some time last week about plagiarism through translation, and the thought just popped up in my head.
(Personally I don't have a problem with people translating quality articles. If it's good information, why not translate to share it with the world)
Well in next release of this extension I will include some extra things to avoid copied text and also hoping to design some bot which will detect plagiarized articles by translation.
You can always plagiarize through translation. I dont see this affecting that in any way.
It just makes it easier... (read my comment above for more)
Don't worry we are here to make it even more difficult.. :)
It's a very useful extention, I hope a lot of people will install it and use it and I hope it will translate better than google translate.
Yap, we will continue improving this extension and more language supports and enhancements will be coming ahead..
Congratulation dear you did a wonderful job. all the best
Thank you so much...
Good to know about it

"How to create posts in 73 different languages without knowledge about the languages"
without knowledge about the languages? despite the fact I appreciate your development effort, promoting the use of the translator to people with no knowledge about the language will lead to low quality articles and texts that doesn't make sense since no automatic translator makes no errors.
Dear! There are many users here who can't write articles in English and they are already creating very low quality articles at least this translator will improve their posts. This translator intends to motivate them to write in language they know and get the translation to the desired language. Thanks for assuming and down voting without checking my work/extension. That's your way to appreciate my hard work and cash that I have spent on this translator.
Quality content cannot be created for 73 idioms without knowing the languages - as you advertised. and the downvote is just a little(-0.03$) one because I don't agree with the reward for it because the use you suggested with the article will feed the creation of non-sense articles. next time if you want no downvotes and you do the contribution for the reward make sure the community really wants it before you even start building. Peace
Well its just a start to get it going in next update I am changing it to manual translations and already started working on that before your downvote. In next update I will hire a team of translators whenever a user requests a translation the request will be sent to the translators of related language pair via discord and their response will be sent back to the user. The translation team members will get 90% of the SBDs/Steem being earned from the Steem Translator. And downvote is downvote for me whether its worth is low or high, downvotes and upvotes really count for me not the worth. Well its your choice, I felt really discouraged and thought not to think anything out of the box again and have stopped working on this yet and may be I will delete this extension if I get 1,2 more negative responses like yours.
And remember we should discuss the things before assuming good or bad. You just assumed without asking about my intentions. The catchy titles are just a business strategy to get more users to this and in fact more translators for this project.
ok, glad to see you are already considering the points i've pointed and planning to involve a real translation team. i will probably support these new features. good luck
Thanks dear.
great job, keep doing the good work brother.
Thank you so much.
I am going to give this a shot myself.
Boosting readership is good for both english and authors of no English post.
This is worthy of a @jerrybanfield #resteem-request for sure.
Thank you so much... It's Next update will be much more exciting and more beneficial... Working on that.. :)
