Translate English to Slovak
Send source_lang EN and target_lang SK and the API returns Slovak text. Here is what makes this pair different from the others.
English
A translation should read as if a person wrote it.
Slovak
Preklad by mal znieť, ako keby ho napísal človek.
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.
Slovak
Slovak is close enough to Czech that speakers understand each other, yet different enough in orthography and vocabulary that reusing Czech text is immediately recognisable as a shortcut.
Script: Latin · Family: West Slavic
The rhythmic law shortens a long vowel after a long syllable; text assembled from parts often violates it.
Formality in this pair
Vykanie with the plural vy is the formal address; tykanie with ty is informal.
