If a word has two pronunciations, the translator will give you two spelling options, and you need to pick the spelling that matches the pronunciation. For example, if you type "read," the translator doesn't know whether you mean present or past tense. It will return "read/red." If you mean present tense, use "read." If you mean past tense, use "red."
If the translator doesn't recognize a word, it will leave the word untouched. You should translate the word yourself using the rules below.
