That observation will change the translation though... Unless you went:
A -> Spanish(A) -> English(Spanish(A)) -> German(Spanish(A)) -> English(German(Spanish(A))).
Otherwise you'd be doing:
A -> Spanish(A) -> English(Spanish(A)) -> German(English(Spanish(A))) -> English(German(English(Spanish(A)))), etc.
- spiralganglion 16y agoYou're absolutely right. It's a lot easier (nay, possible) to do it with the actual Google Translate website, which is where I do all my chained translations. It may seem like extra work, but it lets you get a sense of the qualities of each translation. Obviously, haha, I've spent more time doing this than most would bother to.
