Translate Spanish to American English

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

Spanish

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

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.

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.

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.
