    How does it compare to Baidu? I've always imagined that Chinese translation software would be the better for this particular purpose.

    Does mtl affect your grammar I'm sorry this is so random but I've heard of people who get traumatic experiences from mtl and how their Grammer gets kinds ded. I would try mtl for all the good no els that haven3been translated yet tho. Just the fear of losing my Grammer sense pulls me back

    Grammar check software like MS word or Google Translate can check your grammar, and you can try to fix the mistakes yourself. If your work requires you to write but not something too academic, you only need your sentences to have correct grammar.

    Also, for many people, broken grammar isn't a big problem. :blobowoevil:
    I used Baidu before, and their results are slightly better than Google Translate. Their software can catch Chinese characters from images much better than Google Lens and many OCR software, though.

    Broken grammar is abhorrent to an English speaker

    that cannot be used in entire page like googletl, right? We have to highlight the part we want.

    What's DSI?

    I think their Japanese MTL is also quite decent, but sometimes DeepL has a tendency to "fill in the blanks" and add content that isn't there in the source text.

    Original dialogue: "?"
    DeepL: "What?"

    Is DeepL really that good? Everytime I tried it, it's not as good as Baidu's. Or maybe it's just the novels/genres that I've tried??

    Some novels are worth destroying your grammar (and braincells) for~

    Ahem no but fr just skim read and don't overdo it, you'll be fine.
