I know that there is tag to identify content to be skipped for translation or even to skip an entire page. But I am actually looking the other way around. Is there a tag to use to identify only the content that needs translation?

  • I havent used the translator API, but you can probably achieve this using basic set theory. Create a set of things to be skipped. Simply remove that from the universal set (set of all content). You'll have a set of all the non-skipped items/items to be translated. – Vince Feb 12 '18 at 22:41

Are you talking about Google Website Translator or Translate API?

For Translate API doing affirmative "selection-only" translation, simply provide only the text you want translated to the API call and only that will be translated.

As for the website translator, you are basically telling Google "please translate this entire site" as a premise, so everything is by default translated UNLESS you tell it not to.
