As it is, you choose the language you wish to translate from and to in the settings .There should be a much easier way to handle this.

For example, I often translate stuff from english to spanish and from spanish to english. A way to reverse the translation languages the way google does would be super useful.

aside from just reversing translations, there should be and easier way to change the translation languages once the keyword is activated. I think you just add 3 default results whenever the translate keyword is activated:

  1. Reverse lanuage (en -> es) => (es -> en)
  2. Change From language (currently en)
  3. Change To language (currently es)

I think this is an elegant to what is a somewhat clumsy implementation of translation features.

As an aside, I use Raycast on my macbook and the translations features they have are incredible. One thing that would be a total game changer for would be if I could assign a shortcut to show the ueli screen with the translation plugin already active.

Additionally, I really like google's translation and allowing us to use their translation would be really nice. Maybe you can explain why linguee is chosen over google. I am not sure of the differences , but google does a terrific job with turns of phrase that other translators often translate literally.
