Dynamic dictionary does not work

Question

We use Azure for translation from japanese(ja) to Vietnamese(vi) and Chinese (zh-hans).

Then, We are utilizing a dynamic dictionary at that time, but the dynamic dictionary is not working. (I think it used to work before)

Like: <mstrans:dictionary translation="translation of phrase">phrase</mstrans:dictionary>

The conversion from japanese(ja) to english(en) is working well.

Answer 1

@kazuki miyazaki I think the behavior you are seeing is expected since one of the requirement is to have English in from and to languages.

The From and To languages must include English and another supported language

If you are using Japanese to English this should work as expected but Japanese to Vietnamese will not work and will translate all the elements. Even though you are using en as one of the two language the request to other to languages is treated as a separate request by the API and this will not apply dynamic dictionary in this case.

So, the below works as expected.(Ja->En)

Ja->Vi will translate the entire text and will not apply dynamic dictionary since en is not part of to and from parameters.
