r/techsupport on Reddit: Google Translate converts to numbers instead of leaving them as words
April 19, 2016 -
Recently whenever I say something like "I'd like to pay eighty-eight dollars and fifty-two cents for this item," It'll display it as $88.52 instead of "eighty-eight fifty-two." The annoying thing is that it displays it using words but immediately converts them. Is there any way to keep them as words instead of numbers?
I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Running Android 6.0.1 with Google Translate version 5.0.0.RC24.121993595

I don't believe this is anything recent. It's been doing that for quite a while now if it isn't a nice number that has a word for it like "hundred". It's just the way it's made to work. You'll have to look them up in parts, like eighty and eight as separate terms and hope you can just combine them in the desired output language.

For numeric written in words, Google Translator is providing wrong text while translating from English to Arabic language
For this sample, the translation ... the number 1,204.69 is not present, it is written like “ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FOUR AND HALALA SIXTY NINE” when it should be “ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FOUR AND SIXTY NINE”. When written correctly, is the translation ok? ... Either email addresses are anonymous for this group or you need the view member email addresses permission to view the original message ...

Google Translating Numbers | Oops Oh No
September 20, 2013 - Google has learnt (through user feedback and various algorithms) that when there’s a dot after a number, it’s likely to be a date. BUT JUST IN SPANISH. When you set the source language to things other than Spanish, google now decides that 4. is 4. Why on earth should this be the case for just Spanish text? I do not know the answer, do you? Other languages do produce interesting results, translating from Armenian causes semicolons and parentheses to appear all over the place (link here).

r/softwaregore on Reddit: Google Translate really is the future, isn't it?
December 17, 2016 - But because it picked up the numbers from you, it translated it correctly as the number. ... Your input is interpreted as the digits 15. In running text, you want 15 to be translated as 15. The fifteen you’re seeing here is there because it interprets it in two ways: (a) 15 is a Spanish word to translate to English, (b) 15 is an English word to translate to Spanish. Okay, but why does Google turn 15 into fifteen when translating Spanish→English?
