About
MyMemory Translation is the simplest way to add translation to a bot. You send text in one language and get it back in another, with no API key and no account for the anonymous tier, which covers 5,000 characters a day. A free key tied to an email address raises that to 50,000 a day, still with no card. It is a favorite first API because the whole thing is one web request.
Details
