Question

I have referred this answer Python google-trans-new translate raises error: JSONDecodeError: Extra data:

I did the same thing to solve the problem

but the same problem occurs.

here is my code:

from google_trans_new import google_translator

translator = google_translator()  
translate_text = translator.translate('สวัสดีจีน',lang_tgt='en') 
print(translate_text)

output:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      4 print(translate_text)

I just mentioned the above settings in this question but still if more code is required then tell me I'll update my question with that information. Thank you

Did you check the discussion in the git issue reffered in the other answer? Especially https://github.com/lushan88a/google_trans_new/issues/36#issuecomment-871110918 — buran, Sep 01 '22 at 06:29
Also the traceback shows you didn't fix the line 151: `151 response = (decoded_line + ']')` — buran, Sep 01 '22 at 06:30

I think your problem is about the google translate library. Sometimes google translate libraries give an error like this error. I have a suggestion for the library. It is working successfully.

Try install this library :

pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0

Then I tried a sample code for you :

from googletrans import Translator

translator = Translator()
translate_text = translator.translate('สวัสดีจีน',lang_tgt='en').text

print(translate_text)

and the result :

Have good work :)
