googletrans 没有完全从英语翻译成意大利语

Question

I have just installed the library googletrans but when i try to translate a simple sentence from English to Italian, it does not work properly. Here is the code:

from googletrans import Translator

translator = Translator()

translation = translator.translate('The quick brown fox', src='en', dest='it')
print(translation.origin, ' -> ', translation.text)

The output is the following: The quick brown fox -> Il quick brown fox As you can see the translated part is still in English except the article ( The -> Il ). How is this possible? How can i make it work correclty?

Note: by using the google translate website i am able to obtain the right translation: La rapida volpe marrone

Answer 1

Nice question. My best guess is there exists some kind of bug in the Translator .

Meanwhile, I can suggest you using translate .

pip install translate

from translate import Translator
translator = Translator(to_lang='it')
translation = translator.translate('The quick brown fox')
print(translation)

The output will be exactly as you wish: La rapida volpe marrone
