On a separate note: I did manage to translate an academic lecture in LaTeX from German to British English 🥳

I used latex-deepl-translator¹ with a free Deepl API key (thank you Deepl!) and a bit (quite a bit) of Python hacking to make it work, nothing too dramatic but necessary.

On the other hand I discovered that modern lecturers in Finite Fields don't write pure LaTeX from Emacs (shock! horror!) but use instead something which I don't know, or haven't heard of, which creates things like colour names qqqqzzzz which the translator did not like (I doesn't sound German but what do I know? Perhaps it is Swiss German?)

Anyway, I had to hack the resulting LaTeX quite heavily and, by the way, Deepl does not speak Mathematical German or English very well but the notes are at least readable.

​

P.S. The why I want to know about Finite Fields is a separate matter ;P
