Facebook Translations

[PeteC]

You may have noticed (or heard) that at the moment, and for the past 2 weeks or so, FB is not giving the option to translate from Thai. This was caused by an insulting cock-up caused by the Bing translating service that FB uses.

If you have a need, such as running an on-line store here that is FB based, you'll need to use a secondary translation service like a Google application attached to your browser.

No mention anywhere at present how long this situation will last.

Was intrigued as to the 'insulting cock-up' and could only find this from July last year.

Was there a new translation cock-up?

If you right (or left, can't remember which) click on the Thai writing a pulldown menu has translate from Thai on it. No better than the old translation though

I was wondering what was happening as there's no problem for the translation of any other language, thought there was a problem with my computer
Tried what you suggested migrant but doesn't work
I copy the text and go on Google translate but not very practical

Right click on the text and then choose 'Translate to English'. Still works.

Leave it, as it can't be talked about on here.
