Howdy!

Just a random question that came to mind. When browsing all the instances, plenty are in foreign languages for me, such as the German one in the pic.

Is there a native way in Voyager to translate into English?

No, although you might be able to translate using your phone, e.g. on my Android I can use the "scroll and translate" feature (I'm not sure if it's sent to Google or if it's done on your phone, so you might find the privacy implications a deal-breaker).

With ich_iel, I remember someone on Lemmy explaining that the German is translated from English in a very literal way, so it's not at all idiomatic or even coherent German. Perhaps machine translation would cope with that just fine, or it might completely fail, but I think you'd lose what makes it funny.
