Send source_lang SQ and target_lang EN-US and the API returns American English text. Here is what makes this pair different from the others.
Albanian
Një përkthim duhet të lexohet sikur një person e ka shkruar.
American English
A translation should read as if a person wrote it.
Example output produced by the vizvuz Engine and cached — not a hand-written translation.
Albanian
Albanian is its own branch of Indo-European with no close relatives, has a postposed definite article and an admirative mood that marks surprise — a category most languages simply lack.
Script: Latin · Family: Albanian
The digraphs dh, gj, ll, nj, rr, sh, th, xh and zh are single letters for sorting; a per-character sort produces a wrong dictionary order.
American English
English is the shortest of the supported languages in almost every measurement, which is why interfaces designed in English tend to break when translated into anything else.
Script: Latin · Family: West Germanic
British and American spelling, date order and vocabulary differ enough to matter; choose EN-GB or EN-US explicitly instead of bare EN.
Formality in this pair
American English has no formality distinction to switch, so the formality parameter is accepted and ignored.
