LadyFluffyOrcaA frozen waterfall in the Italian Alps. Human for scale!
Junksizucco@weaniejeanie53 very beautiful, I know that we can’t speak other languages on here but the beauty of Italy makes me want to speak its tongue

Do you mean that you can't speak other languages on your instance? That's bizarre!

@Catmama @junksisucco there was talk on here of adding a translation to tweets in other languages like there is on twatter but it’s not materialised yet.
@weaniejeanie53 @junksisucco
There is a Translation mode here. The translation service Mastodon uses is not as accurate as what the birdsite uses, though.

@Catmama @junksisucco I’m on mas.to too but I’ve never seen it? Does it show up at the bottom of toots like on it does on twatter?
@weaniejeanie53
I should add that the only time I see the Translate option is for toots in languages other than English.

@Catmama I’ve just looked at a toot in German and there was nothing about a translation 🤔
@weaniejeanie53
Really? No link at the bottom of the toot? Interesting 🤔

Julian Andres Klode 🏳️🌈@Catmama @weaniejeanie53 each toot has a language which defaults to the profile language. When tooting in a different language, the language needs to be set in the toot composer. There is no autodetection. The official apps do not support the language setting yet.
You'll see - on the web, if your server supports it, potentially on some apps - a translate link for any post in a language different than your own if the post had the correct language tag set during composition.
