Yes, it's typical of the journalist to leave out details to make it more 'clickworthy'.

I hope it boosts people's willingness to start learning a new language. But I bet someone's using it to eavesdrop on someone else's conversation.

How real-time translation could transform travel – and what we might lose
Apple's new live translation feature is a boon for travellers, but over-reliance on AI translation could make us rethink how, and why, we learn languages.

It's #Caturday but I don't have any cat photos to share. So I thought I'd post this one of an octopus. 🤭

I don't know, but they could be. I published thousands of my photos under a Creative Commons licence which allows people (including companies, newspapers and magazines, bloggers, etc) to use them free. If they spelt my name with two Rs, they're probably mine.

Posting my favourite poem again for #NationalPoetryDay
The Song of Wandering Aengus BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS I went out to the hazel wood, Because a fire was in my head, And cut and peeled a hazel wand, And hooked a berry to a thread; And when white moths were on the wing, And moth-like stars were flickering out, I dropped the berry in a stream And caught a little silver trout. When I had laid it on the floor I went to blow the fire a-flame, But something rustled on the floor, And someone called me by my name: It had become a glimmering girl With apple blossom in her hair Who called me by my name and ran And faded through the brightening air. Though I am old with wandering Through hollow lands and hilly lands, I will find out where she has gone, And kiss her lips and take her hands; And walk among long dappled grass, And pluck till time and tides are done, The silver apples of the moon, The golden apples of the sun.
