Is there a Libreoffice Calc function to translate languages? I would like to write words into my spreadsheet and then automatically copy and translate them into german into a new cell.

This is a duplicate of question asked in May 2016 but that question has no answers so this question should not be closed as duplicate I guess??? askubuntu.com/questions/769147/…– WinEunuuchs2UnixMar 4, 2017 at 22:57

I guess basically it would be the same question.– Charlie PlettMar 4, 2017 at 23:00

I did a little googling but couldn't find an answer. I'll give your question a +1 and hopefully someone notices it who can answer.– WinEunuuchs2UnixMar 5, 2017 at 0:46

2I have no idea how to make this work in practice (and in may not) but it is at least theoretically possible to use Calc to query a web resource to process the translation, and retrieve the result. Google translate can be used in API mode, and might offer a path to a solution.– vandemMar 5, 2017 at 6:11

In addition to @vandem's comment: in the Apache OOo forums, there's an example how to query a web service that may be useful.– tohuwawohuMar 5, 2017 at 9:53
