Microsoft Translator

Microsoft Translator, part of the collection of Cognitive Services and an Azure service, is a cloud-based text translation API.

The Microsoft Translator Text API supports text translation and text-to-speech automatically translates between any of the more than 60 supported languages.

Additional functionality includes language detection, transliteration, bilingual dictionary, and customization with the Custom Translator (Preview).

With translations powered by Microsoft Translator, Microsoft’s Speech services offer end-to-end speech translation and supports both speech-to-speech and speech-to-text translation.

It is the same translation service that powers the speech translation capabilities in the Presentation Translator, Microsoft Translator live feature, Skype Translator, and the conversation feature of the Microsoft Translator iOS and Android apps.

Note: The new Speech Service and SDK is replacing the Microsoft Translator Speech API, which will no longer work starting October 15, 2019. For information on switching to the Speech Service, see Migrating from the Custom Speech Service to the Speech Service at https://review.learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/speech-service/how-to-migrate-from-custom-speech-service.

Developer information for Microsoft Translator can be found at the following URL: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/translator-text-api/

More details on Cognitive Services can be found here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services

Can someone explain why this is happening? I'm using their TranslationContainer sample they've provided. This strikes me as wrong; if I'm translating lots of small pieces of text I'm going to be changed per translation rather than against my quota…
