Donot translate not works for hindi and other Indian languages

[Thiru-Malai]

Hello, When I put some English text in dont_translate_phrases.txt , it does not get translated to any language. But when I want to translate to Hindi and other Indian languages, it does not skip the translation. I am putting the Hindi text in dont_translate_phrases.txt file. Is there something you can help with it?

If you want to translate English to Hindi, then why would you put the HINDI phrases in the text file instead of the English phrases?

You actually need to put the text in the original language into the list.

For example, if you are translating from English to Hindi, all the words in the dont_translate file should be in English. If you are going from German to Spanish, they would be in German.

Yeah in my example, I am using hindi to english translation, and I dont want to translate some words in Hindi. But when I put the Hindi phrases in donot_translate.csv, it gets translated to English. I guess this feature only applies to certain languages. Is it so?

Could you provide us with a reproducible example?

Yeah, sure… Case – 1: (Working fine as expected) ENG -> Hindi When I want to translate from English to Hindi , This is My original SRT file:

Do_not_translate.csv file:

My translated SRT file(For hindi)(Working Fine)

Case – 2: (Not working) Hindi -> Eng Original SRT file:

Do_not_tranlate.txt file:

Changed language to be translated to English and also the original language to hindi:

But the English output somehow gets translated as shown below:

Ok it turns out the regex wasn't working with the Unicode characters. But it should be fixed with the latest release 0.11.2.
