FAQ - Smoogle Translate Documentation

What translate engine does it use? Does it use Google/Bing/Yandex Translate?
The bot uses our own translator engine, which was developed using OpenNMT libraries.
I need the translator for an important event. How can I ensure speed and accuracy during that time?
If you are running an event where speed and accuracy of the translator are absolutely necessary, contact me by joining support server and create a ticket.
What I can do is basically create a seperate bot that will exist for the duration of the event (this keeps the traffic isolated from the main bot). If you have a preference of translator engines/APIs, I can customize it to your needs. Just keep in mind that the additional hosting costs and customizations will come at an additional cost.
How do I translate a single message?
Use ? with a language code to translate to that language.
For example, ?de This message will be translated to German
How to I translate a single message another user has sent?
You can react to the message with a flag emoji, which will translate it to that country's official language.
How do I translate everything I say into another language?
Use tr?auto  to automatically translate everything you say into another language.
Can I translate everything I say into multiple languages?
Yes, however this requires a premium subscription, and you must be an administrator of your server for it to work.
For example, tr?auto de and tr?auto fr will translate to German and French, instead of just switching to French translations.
Can I limit the automatic translations of my messages to specific channels only?
Yes you can. Use tr?auto with a channel for it to work on only that channel.
For example, tr?auto de #german and tr?auto fr #french will translate to German and French on the #german and #french channels respectively.
Can I translate all messages in the server regardless of user?
Yes, by using tr?autoall. However this requires a premium subscription, and you must be an administrator of your server for it to work.
For example, tr?autoall de will turn on server wide and user wide translations into German. 
You can also limit translations to a specific channel(s), such as tr?autoall de #channel1 #channel2
Can I make different language translations go into their own channels?
Yes, by using tr?channel. However, this requires a premium subscription, and you must be an administrator of your server for it to work.
For example, tr?channel de #channel1 #channel2 will forward any translations to German to #channel1 and #channel2, instead of the channel of the original message.
