Mate Translate for translating text from the menubar. Source: about 2 years ago

I came across this app called Mate https://gikken.co/mate-translate/. Source: about 2 years ago

Https://gikken.co/mate-translate/ They have 100+ languages. The user can pick a word, say "Morning" and find it in all 100 plus languages. They also have pronunciation, phrases etc. I checked a few translations and pronunciations in some languages I know, they seem accurate and manual. Are there free dictionaries, datasets, pronunciations they are using? Or did they hire hundreds of people to compile this dataset? - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
