tli is broken #1

At the beginning it appears to be that Google has dropped the API_URL that the project is using to translate.

A simple test (using the browser) to request the API_URL arises that the service isn't broken, however Google has implemented a robot checker to this service, so I suggest to look up for another one translations provider, perhaps My Memmory. What do you think @rendon :grey_question:

@slackmart I'm back, this tool is still useful for me, but I'm planning on using the paid API, it's just a few bucks, $20 / Million chars, which I think is a lot, it's easier this way, the quality of other services is not as good as google translate.

I'll restart the development soon, let me know if you're interested in helping.

Google Translate API sucks, it does not return the same data that is shown in the web page, only the translation, I'll use Merriam Webster API instead: https://www.dictionaryapi.com/
