I had this problem too so I added auto-finding video clips so I know how it sounds irl.

I had this problem initially but found that if you use these then hallucinations mostly go away.
1. Role based "agents" with a router and logs (for auditing reasoning and decision making).
2. Cross validation and redundancy with the translation "agent" using a 2nd language (that is not English) that you are also native in to check if the translation carries the same "meaning" (sentiment) and cultural significance (Turkish is especially rich in symbolism and cultural memes).
YMMV: I am a car salesman irl and have no formal training.

tl;dr "The Foreign Service Institute (FSI) is the primary training institution to prepare American diplomats to advance U.S. foreign affairs interests, teaching, among other things, the languages of the countries where Foreign Service Officers will serve. "
Apologies, I should have linked beforehand.

Abi, slick design!
A feature where it supports TR -> EN and vice versa would be amazing!

Thoughts on FSI methodology? That's what I used for mine (my app).

I am learning Turkish so I built something like that for me. You can highlight any word online and it will translate colloquially so you can actually use it irl.
It also has audio and pronunciation. It is around the halfway mark in the demo.
