Of course you're sending all this information to Google now. Are there any offline translators that are advanced enough to be used for something like this? I imagine most just naively map words 1:1 which wouldn't do much good here.

I was wondering the same. Oddly enough, on your phone you can use Google Translate offline, they let you download language packs. Not sure if they ever "phone home".
