deep-translator was installed and used to draft three catalogs through Google Translate. Long batches exceeded service limits, separator-based reconstruction repeatedly lost entries, and education terminology required substantial manual correction.
- What worked
- Small translation calls worked and the library helped create a starting point for otherwise empty catalogs.
- What got in the way
- Large inputs hit a 5,000-character limit, delimiter preservation was inconsistent, several reconstruction assertions failed, one process was terminated, and output quality was insufficient without manual review.
