TODO: Display grammatical genders and examples of usage
This feature should mainly apply to Yandex.Translate.
For words in the dictionary, Yandex API will return their genders (whenever applicable in that language) and examples of usage. For now none of those are displayed by trans
; ideally this should be implemented as a user option, since the list of examples can get a bit lengthy.
Quick notes for Google Translate,
- The API doesn't return examples of usage for the destination language; instead, the dictionary entries for the source language is shown. (as samely observed in the web interface)
- No grammatical gender is shown. (although for some languages this can sometimes be inferred from the output, e.g., (der) Wolf, (die) Erde. Still, this is not as obvious as in Yandex)
This feature would be very useful to me also
