1:10 PM

@ShadowWizard How can I detect if someone starts a sentence with a word equal to a language code?

I probably cannot, so...

Shadow Wizard

@ProgramFOX white list of language codes, no?

Jan Dvorak

/\b(\w\w|auto)\b/

ProgramFOX

@ShadowWizard Yes, but for example, the word ja and en are valid in Dutch (and are valid language codes), so if I provide the sentence ja en ..., this can either be a language or the start of a sentence.

Braiam

@ProgramFOX just use a keyword to start the translation, like semicolon or vertical bar...

>> translate en ja | here start the translation

ProgramFOX

@Braiam That would make parsing more complicated. I already have to make some exceptions for the translation commands, this would end up in more exceptions.
