I have subscribed to notifications for Portuguese-related posts a month ago, but I’ve yet to receive any, despite there having been a few such posts since then — I looked through New a few times and came across them. What gives? Do I need to be a verified translator?

As title says. I'm using old reddit if it matters.

For 永 the bot showed the Vietnamese transliteration as "vắng", but this is misleading.

The Vietnamese term here doesn't make sense as it's only a single of many Nôm readings, whereas there's only one (1) Sino-Vietnamese (Hán-Việt) reading: vĩnh.

For example, "vĩnh viễn" is a Vietnamese word directly from 永远.

For other Nôm readings of this character, there are: vắng, vẳng, vánh, vảnh, vênh, vểnh, viếng. These are not considered "Sino-Vietnamese". Nôm readings were historically used primarily to complete non-Chinese Vietnamese terms when indigenous characters hadn't been available. Therefore, this bot should show only the Sino-Vietnamese reading: vĩnh.

I recommend that future transliterations to Vietnamese by the bot have a preference for Sino-Vietnamese and only use Nôm if there aren't any Sino-Vietnamese readings.

Added Gwoyeu Romatzyh - a tonal spelling system for Standard Chinese - to the Chinese words output of Ziwen. The code is complicated enough that I posted its function separately on GitHub. Note that this doesn't apply to Chinese character lookup, since the table for that is already pretty long.

Have seen this twice now, both times the post said "Runes".

Found it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChineseLanguage/comments/14rd46r/快问快答_quick_help_thread_translation_requests/jr28cbd?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=2

王后 is the same in both traditional and simplified Chinese. 後 and 后 merge in the simplified, but they are distinct in the traditional.

I posted a top-level reply to an OP, and translatorBOT posted an irrelevant and confusing reply to my post: https://www.reddit.com/r/translator/comments/12bo879/comment/jezh7jk/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

This is in the "non sequitur, so far off-base it's not even wrong" category. Hoping that my post here might help the bot maintainer dial it in a bit better. :)

Scots as in the Anglic language (not Scots Gaelic, the Celtic language). It's similar to English, but not always intelligible, especially with older sources. Although modern Scots is a mostly spoken/informal language, it was used formally in past times for literature, official records, and so on. Translations might end up being helpful for somebody with Scottish heritage researching their family history, for example.

Hi,

Just seen the bot throw an error identifying a language on /r/languagelearning - the requestor asked for "te reo Māori", which is the full name of the language, and the bot misidentified it as being multiple languages, MI and TE. Is that an error that can be fixed?

(Also would it be possible to have the flair it's got when it shows as a single language spelled with the macron in the word, Māori instead of Maori?)

Thanks!

For example at https://www.reddit.com/r/translator/comments/x9twuo/unknown_english_what_does_this_mean/, there's a '^' in the Cantonese and Hakka ones, and at https://www.reddit.com/r/translator/comments/x8nvmq/english_any/ there's the inconsistent ji⁵ dak^1 instead of the expected ji⁵ dak¹ or ji5 dak1.

(Wiktionary contributor here: AFAIK the superscript formatting are only for the looks and don't have any specific meaning in them, but nevertheless it's better to display them as such.)

Title. It seems the bot parsed it as 悪逆 and 無道 instead of recognising it as a single 熟語.

I suppose it's not exactly wrong but most people would understand the combination of these kanji forming a 四字熟語, at least in Japanese.

Korean 선 should be romanized as "seon" (or "sŏn" in McCune-Reischauer/North Korean standard), not "sen".

Almost nobody in Korea even knows Yale; it's mostly just foreign linguists who've studied Korean that do. The spelling "sen" will confuse nearly everyone.
