DG Translator is a compact and completely off-line translator.
We do not show adds and we do not require internet connection.
However, if you want to use speech translation, then it might
work better if you are on-line. We use existing
Android speech services which may not be fully functional off-line.
In all cases you can always use keyboard input.
</p>
<p>
We indicate the translation confidence with colours:
<ul>
<li><b>Green</b>:
semantic translation, should be correct.
But not necessarily the only correct one.
</li>
<li><b>Yellow</b>:
syntactic translation, should be grammatically correct.
But can be very strange in its interpretation and choice of words.
</li>
<li><b>Light red</b>:
chunk translation, probably incorrect.
Builds the translation from small pieces.
</li>
<li><b>Dark red</b>:
word-by-word translation, almost certainly incorrect.
Builds the translation word by word.
</li>
</ul>
The translation works between any pair of the supported languages.
However, it works best <b>from English</b> and also from Swedish.
From other languages it can be slow and give more red.
But expect frequent updates and improvements!
</p>
<p>
When you tab on a translation you get a screen with <b>alternative translations</b>.
If the input is only a single word, then taping on each of the alternatives
gives you grammatical and morphological information for the word.
</p>
<p>
The app also provides an <b>input method</b> which you can use as
an alternative keyboard which allows you to do translation from
other applications, for instance while you are entering SMS or e-mail.
To activate it go to Settings > Language & input.
