If necessary, translate open source text api

Question

I read other posts related to this, but I have nothing specific.

I am developing an Android application using phonegap, which requires some kind of translation of the text. So I searched google translate api, but they charge a fee for this. They also do not make it available for testing.

So, I switched to bing translate, but not sure if we can use it for Android or not. If we can use how we can use it with jQuery. I searched a lot, but did not receive any specific information.

So, someone, please ask if there is anyway with which google can provide its translation api for testing

OR

How to use bing translate api for android application for testing purpose

OR

Any open source api that can do this for me.

please explain in some example

Useful Link Found: Free Open Source Machine Translation Software

I think you can try some rule-based translator like Apertium , Anusaaraka , OpenLogos or Maxin . But I think that statistical machine translation systems can provide better translation quality if you get adequate training. Moses has the widest community support and has been tested by many companies and localization researchers. You can see its translation quality here on the basis of different data and languages ​​of instruction.

Another option (you have to rely on the network, they are not open):

Microsoft Translator APIs
Microsoft Translator APIs provide Ajax, SOAP, HTTP access, registration is required for this. But it's free. I believe the Bing translation API .

Mygengo Translation API
Gengo requires you to create an account first.

WebServiceX API Translate
Free web service. Check wsdl

Yandex API
