I copied exactly what it said and as I speak the languages involved, they
seemed reasonable. I often find it provides somewhat different translations
than I expect and sometimes I need to supply a longer

It is not an unusual pattern, Thomas, to do something selective to some object
rather than do all parts just one way.
The history of computing has often been one where you had to deal with scarcity
of expensive resources.
Consider the Python "list" as a rather wasteful container that is best

Note how this can cause problems with the original idea here of caching strategies.
Imagine a function that checks the environment as to what encoding or human language and
so on to produce text in. If you cache it so it produces
