Google tightened the restrictions and now from a single IP address can make very few queries, and blocks the translate requests for. The workflow might translate for you on a different internet connection.

This is a common issue: Alfred Forum GitHub (matheuss/google-translate-api): BAD_REQUEST response GitHub (matheuss/google-translate-api):BAD_NETWORK

Someone resolving this with the proxy. I'm using a VPN, so I avoid this issue, just by triggering another IP. I can't resolve this issue at the moment. Hope you'll find some solution by the links above.

I tried several hosts but none of them works with it. I think this feature can be optional or must be work without throwing an error.
