I encourage you to offer a “translation” option that involves simplification (e.g. Simple German) where the speech language X is translated in a simplified version of the language X. There’s value there.

Fun idea, are you thinking about a language learning use case?

    That's also just a plain accesibility - levelling the situation where someone is less fluent in a given language. You could even translate from english to simple english!

      Interesting. It's the oral version of "rewrite this paragraph to be understandable by someone with a 5th grade education".

      Wild to think about.

    There are some complicated words in German. When simplified have a translation. But in German it’s just, German. Streichholzschächtelchen. When one could just easily say Streichholzer.
