DeepL

From my experience of couple of differently structured languages' pairs, while the service produces nice sounding translations, about half of them are nice sounding bullshit. And it utterly fails at common onomatopoeias.

In addition it suffers from strange AI brainfarts like duplicating the same word after "and" where there obviously an alternate meaning, totally skipping some key words, generating irrelevant garbage, or not producing even a perfunctory result at all.

So it's generally a step forward over Google Translate, but still needs several layers of manual corrections and switching back to GT to be sufficiently clear.

I have been learning German recently, and its surprising how much better DeepL is compared to google translate.

I have been surprised that google translate is also crappy in Deutsch a language that is often very well supported in tech. I speak Arabic, and google translate is hot garbage when translating to Arabic, its often very literal and doesn't understand the context.

Since DeepL seems to shine in complex languages, I hope they are working on supporting Arabic, a language spoken by more than 400 million people.

I use DeepL for Spanish to English translation on a daily basis and can honestly say this tool made language learning so much easier. It's amazing to see how it can easily change the translation of the word as you type in the full sentence.
