Get language pairs

deprecated

This endpoint has been deprecated and may be removed in future versions of the API.

Get the list of supported language pairs for Machine Translation.

  • A language pair represents a combination of a source language code together with a target language code.
  • These codes follow the IETF BCP 47 language tag standard.
    For example, the code en-GB stands for British English and pt-PT for Portuguese from Portugal.
Info

See the language code schema for more information regarding the allowed format/syntax.

Example of a response to this endpoint:
[{"source": "en", "target": "de"}, {"source": "da", "target": "en"}].

This response means that our MT API supports and allows translating from:

  • English (en) to German (de).
  • Danish (da) to English (en).

However, it does not necessarily support the other way round!

Caution

When specifying the MT language pairs of your need, pay special attention to the direction (source-target) of the language pair codes.
