For most users,

thanks to recent
efforts aimed

MT literacy,
the situation

hood of MT without any
coding! Anyone with a Google
account can access five out
of the seven features of the
application: Data, Engines,
Translate, Inspect, and
Evaluate. (See Figure 3 on
page 38.) Let's take a look at
each of these features.
Data: A rapidly expanding
collection of parallel
corpora already uploaded
to the system by expert
users. Some corpora have
millions of sentence pairs.
These are used to train
NMT engines. Any user can
" grab " an available corpus
and add it to their individual
collection ( " Your Corpora " ).
The corpora can also be
previewed and downloaded
as a zipped archive of two
parallel text files.
Engines: Offers a growing
list of NMT models trained
by expert users on the
available corpora. Again,

users can " grab " any engine
and add it to their individual
collection ( " Your Engines " )
for translation and inspection.
You can also view the
training log of a given engine
and learn a ton of useful
information. The corpora and
engines that are no longer
needed can be removed from
the individual collections.
Translate: This is where you
can choose an engine from
your individual collection
to translate a sentence or
a small file. This may take
some time. Important: don't
expect DeepL quality! Rather,
come to appreciate the
amazing fact that a neural
model trained entirely from
scratch on a relatively small
corpus4 with a simple toolkit5

time, for primarily didactic
purposes can often produce a
reasonable translation-and
in such a transparent way!
Inspect: Allows you to
