Looking at how google works I was hoping someone in google wold adopt it and release a competing product against google translate https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.11197&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2005.11197/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

Netflix paper using simplify then translating to me seems to be the better approach when you want to convey the meaning rather than just translating the exact words https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.11197&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2005.11197/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

As https://www.deepl.com/en/translator is better than google translate currently. Although for translating forums on a website etc I think netflix method would be better I hope google adopts it for its translate app https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.11197&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2005.11197/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
