Getting Started

Welcome! This guide takes you from a fresh clone to your first Monsu translation.

What you will need

  • Python 3.8+
  • git

1. Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/rkriad585/EMTranslator.git
cd EMTranslator
python -m pip install -e .

This installs the emtrans command and the emtranslator package in editable mode, so code changes take effect immediately.

2. Verify the install

emtrans --version
# emtrans 0.1.0

3. Translate your first sentence

emtrans "Hello world"
# Monsu_1 monsu_2

Unknown words pass through unchanged:

emtrans "Hello zebra"
# Monsu_1 zebra

4. Translate back from Monsu

emtrans --reverse "monsu_1 monsu_2"
# hello world

5. Add your first word

emtrans add hi monsu_91
emtrans "hi world"
# monsu_91 monsu_2

The new word is persisted to ~/.config/neostore/emtranslator/config.toml and is available to every future emtrans run.

6. Use the library

from emtranslator import Translator

t = Translator()
print(t.translate("Hello world"))
