I'll get the ball rolling with some simple translator ideas:

- translate translator?

/hurd/translate ?  https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate 

They support sending queries to the website (for $29 / month). 
If someone wants to spin up a docker server for 
libretranslate...that might make it easier to to try to write
such a translator.  It also runs offline too apparently.

- maybe compile translator?

settrans -ca hello hello.c

Anytime you update hello.c, hello gets recompiled.  


- Maybe audio -> text translator
https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech


- maybe html -> org translator
        markup language -> markup language translator
