POST/api/astro/translate/1 credit

Text translation

A thin wrapper over Google Cloud Translation, offered so that chart text produced elsewhere in this API can be shown in another language without you holding a separate Google key. It performs no astrological calculation of its own. Post `text` with an optional `target_language` (an ISO code, defaulting to `hi` for Hindi) and an optional `source_language` (defaulting to `en`); omit or blank the source and Google will detect it. The response is a flat object with `original_text`, `translated_text`, `source_language` (the detected code when you did not supply one) and `target_language`. Note that, unlike most endpoints here, it is not wrapped in a `data` envelope. A failure reaching or parsing the upstream service is returned as a 502.
