I mainly use Swedish-English translation and I can't really say I'm satisfied with its results. Most of the time it doesn't understand the context a word is in, and it produces an incorrect translation. Even single word translations are bad compared to Google Translate or such.

That throws an api error at me

I mean you can try how it works on this website, I believe api is paid for this one but it's free if you host it yourself.

No, that's if you use their hosted service. It's free to self-host.
