When translating a post written in Filipino, the translator plugin gives a 500 error. It doesn’t seem to matter what language it’s being translated into, it always gives the error. Log info for this error: RuntimeError (The translator is unable to translate this language.) app/controllers/application_controller.rb:414:in `block in with_resolved_locale' app/controllers/application_controller.rb:414:in `with_resolved_locale' lib/middleware/omniauth_bypass_middleware.rb:74:in `call' lib/content_security_policy/middleware.rb:12:in `call' lib/middleware/anonymous_cache.rb:369:in `call' config/initializers/100-quiet_logger.rb:20:in `call' config/initializers/100-silence_logger.rb:29:in `call' lib/middleware/enforce_hostname.rb:24:in `call' lib/middleware/request_tracker.rb:228:in `call' Backtrace plugins/discourse-translator/services/discourse_translator/google.rb:98:in `translate' plugins/discourse-translator/plugin.rb:57:in `translate' actionpack (7.0.4.3) lib/action_controller/metal/basic_implicit_render.rb:6:in `send_action' actionpack (7.0.4.3) lib/abstract_controller/base.rb:215:in `process_action' actionpack (7.0.4.3) lib/action_controller/metal/rendering.rb:53:in `process_action' actionpack (7.0.4.3) lib/abstract_controller/callbacks.rb:234:in `block in process_action' activesupport (7.0.4.3) lib/active_support/callbacks.rb:118:in `block in run_callbacks' app/controllers/application_controller.rb:414:in `block in with_resolved_locale' i18n (1.12.0) lib/i18n.rb:322:in `with_locale' app/controllers/application_controller.rb:414:in `with_resolved_locale'

Translator gives 500 error only for Filipino

This error is I believe because the detected language is not a known i18n in Discourse. Here is how I fixed a similar issue.

What Translation engine are you using? What is the text that is giving the error?
