Problem with Google Translate API and span tag

[ELSATE COM]

Days ago that we have a problem with Google Translate API when translate html text with the span tag. The API dont preserve the format, example:

<span style="font-size: 150%; line-height: normal"><em>

Original text (spanish): https://www.elsate.com/viewtopic.php?t=1795

Result API: https://www.elsate.com/viewtopic.php?t=1795&l=en

Anyone more have the same problem with html span tags? Thanks

Wrap the translated text in a

<div lang="..."></div>

(for blocks) or

<span lang="..."></span>

(for inline fragments) and set the

lang=""

attribute to the appropriate language code formed. Example, to convert from Spanish to English:

<span lang="en-x-mtfrom-es">Hola</span>

You can find the full article about Translation API Markup on HTML document here.

Thanks for your reply but using lang="en-x-mtfrom-es" in span tag doesnt resolve the problem

I think that cloud engine (api) has stop working from last week. In same content text some parts are correctly translate but other fails. Because other span tag in same send text to translate works fine. :(

From your example, I only see the following span tag usage: 

<span style="font-size: 150%; line-height: normal" lang="en-x-mtfrom-es"><strong>You may also like...</strong></span>

The above is already in English on your Spanish site.

Google API Translation remove some tags HTML, using or not the following lang="en-x-mtfrom-es"

We have detect the problem, is with the Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model, it is failing. With Phrase-Based Machine Translation (PBMT) mode works fine. 

By default, when you make a translation request to the Google Cloud Translation API, your text is translated using the NMT model. If the NMT model is not supported for the requested language translation pair, or if you explicitly request it, the PBMT model is used.

model

string The translation model. Can be either base to use the Phrase-Based Machine Translation (PBMT) model, or nmt to use the Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model. If omitted, then nmt is used. If the model is nmt, and the requested language translation pair is not supported for the NMT model, then the request is translated using the base model.

Please repair and check the nmt model soon . Thanks you @Google

This is expected behavior for the Premium Edition (Beta) of Translation API. As noted on this article:

By default, when you make a translation request to the Google Cloud Translation API, your text is translated using the NMT model. If the NMT model is not supported for the requested language pair, or if you explicitly request it, the PBMT model is used.

You can specify which model to use for translation by using the model query parameter. Specify base to use the PBMT model, and nmt to use the NMT model.

As features become available for the Premium Edition in the future, we will document those features in this topic.
