This is not just English: the misused term "Converter", "convert" is the plaque among CodeProject users. Who infected everyone?! So, translator? Well, not a question. Maybe I want, too...

yes any language to any language

Wow, and you really think, that somebody will give the source code of such a complicated thing to you just like that? Dream on.

Are you talking about something like Google Translate?

cordno64 5-Jul-11 5:26am

yes like Google Translate

Are you talking about transliteration? Example:
aap kaise hain -> आप कैसे हैं
or translation
how are you -> आप कैसे हैं ??

cordno64 5-Jul-11 5:26am

yes yes

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 5-Jul-11 5:30am

Translation -- yes, transliteration -- yes. Aha... :-)

Translation is quite difficult to create and there is not 100% guarantee that the translation is 100% correct or not. For this you have to maintain a Database of phrases and AI.
There is no source code for transliteration but it can be easily created by some rules. of-course for different language there must be a different logic.

"Are you talking about something like Google Translate?"

"yes like Google Translate"

You are very, very unlikely to find any worthwhile source code for this: it is complex, expensive-to-produce and valuable Intellectual Property which is closely guarded by it's creator.

Why not use Google Translate itself? Until recently, they provided an API which allowed you to use it, but unfortunately it was badly abused and will be shut off compleletly in December. They do still provide Elements[^] which may be able to help you.

I have a project something like that . plz if u can help me do that ..

Smithers-Jones 5-Jul-11 5:55am

You haven't asked for help, but for source code for a complete, very sophisticated project. If you have a real problem and showed some effort, poeple will help you, but therefore you have to ask a specific question.

had no idea they were shutting off the API to their translator... my 5, good answer...

OriginalGriff 5-Jul-11 14:09pm

Afraid so: 1st Dec 2011 http://code.google.com/apis/language/translate/overview.html

Albert Holguin 5-Jul-11 17:32pm

well that's definitely bad news, but I guess I can see why they've chosen to do this...
