Frequently Asked Questions
Germanic ↔ Romance translation (English / German / Dutch / Swedish / etc. with French / Spanish / Italian / Portuguese / etc.) is the best-resourced pair shape in machine translation, with the largest training corpora and the most refined models. English to Dutch typically reaches 94-96% professional-grade accuracy.
Germanic compounds are split during translation and re-rendered as multi-word phrases in Romance targets (English / French / Italian / Spanish all use spaces or hyphens for compounds). The model handles this without losing semantic precision.
German and Dutch use verb-second (V2) word order in main clauses; English and the Romance family use strict SVO. The model rewrites the clause structure on output so the result reads naturally in the target rather than copying the source structure.
Each language has its own formal / informal split. The model maps the source register to the target equivalent: German Sie ↔ French vous ↔ Italian Lei ↔ Spanish usted. Default register for business content is formal.
German has three genders and four cases; Romance languages have two genders and minimal case marking; English has neither. The model picks the most-likely gender / case from context and defaults to common patterns for ambiguous source.
For software, finance, legal, and medical content, the model maintains terminology consistency within a single document. For batch jobs, pass a glossary as a sidecar to enforce specific term choices across many requests.
Numbers use the target language's convention: German "1.234,56", French "1 234,56", English "1,234.56", Spanish "1.234,56". Dates similarly: DD.MM.YYYY (German), DD/MM/YYYY (most Romance), MM/DD/YYYY (US English).
The model uses idiomatic target equivalents rather than literal word-by-word rendering. "It's raining cats and dogs" (English) → "Es regnet in Strömen" (German) → "Il pleut des cordes" (French). Cross-language idioms are mapped where the model has high confidence.
Brand names, product trademarks, and English-origin loanwords (UI, API, OK, smartphone) stay English in the output, matching the convention of most modern European publishers.
The model defaults to standard German (Hochdeutsch) for German output. For Swiss German or Austrian content, pass de-CH or de-AT — vocabulary and a few orthographic quirks will follow the regional convention.
The model defaults to neutral journalistic register, which is right for product UI, marketing, and consumer content. Literary or strongly-conversational source content needs explicit register hints or post-editing.
10,000 characters on the web translator and 50,000 via the API. European-language pair output is approximately 1.0-1.2x the source character count.
