Google Translate

I use Google Translate intermittently, mainly to translate back and forth between Indonesian and English. It's easy to forget that the words that I've looked up are stored and can be exported as a CSV file to Google Sheets. From there the words can be copied and pasted elsewhere, as I've done right here using a small sample:

bee	lebah
investigation	penyelidikan
disability	cacat
anonymous	anonim
iodine	yodium
he is trying to create a positive image	dia mencoba menciptakan citra yang positif
suspicious	mencurigakan
image	gambar
treasonable	khianat
cautious	waspada
hypocrite	munafik
dolphin	lumba-lumba
shark	hiu
whale	ikan paus
cause	sebab

Within Google Translate of course you can hear the words pronounced as well which is of course an added bonus.

It's just made me realise how I underutilise the features of this free service. Evil as it is, Google still offers a lot of useful, free stuff. It's also possible to create a series of flashcards from the spreadsheet, using a template from flippity.net. Figure 1 shows the straightforward instructions:

Here is the link to the flashcards that were created. Figure 2 shows a screenshot of the interface:
