Het gebruik van LLM-vertaling kan zorgen voor flexibelere vertalingen.

If custom prompt is allowed then it works that way. But isn’t too practical if there is more text.

(And because we can’t adjust system prompt perhaps needed rules are close to impossible IF translation is done for one language only)

@Falco certainly has this on our roadmap.
