Translate English to Spanish

Send source_lang EN and target_lang ES and the API returns Spanish text. Here is what makes this pair different from the others.

English

A translation should read as if a person wrote it.

Spanish

Una traducción debería leerse como si la hubiera escrito una persona.

Example output produced by the vizvuz Engine and cached — not a hand-written translation.

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.

Spanish

Spanish is grammatically gendered throughout and drops subject pronouns, so the same English sentence can produce four valid Spanish variants depending on who is being addressed.

Script: Latin · Family: Romance

Inverted opening marks ¿ and ¡ are mandatory; strings that strip them look illiterate to a native reader.

Formality in this pair

Usted is the formal address, tú the informal one; Latin American usage additionally has ustedes where Spain uses vosotros.
