Cloud Translation API - British English

[Aura Corporation IT Manager]

Hi

We are trying Cloud Translation API. From the list below, we found English are supported. But, we found some issue that it only able to translate to American English

https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/languages

There are several areas in which British and American spelling are different.

For example, words ending in -our

British English words ending in -our usually end in -or in American English:

British US

colour color

flavour flavor

humour humor

labour labor

Is there anyway, we can get the API to translate it into British English instead of American English

Thanks

Hi,

As per the documentation you linked, as it currently stands, there is only one version of English available. Nevertheless, I opened an issue tracker on your behalf requesting to have different language codes for British and American English. 

Kindly note that there are no ETAs or guarantees for these features to be implemented. Additionally, as all future updates regarding this matter will be held on the issue tracker, I recommend subscribing to it by starring the issue. Starring the issue also displays more users are interested in said functionality and brings more traction towards it.
