Sorry, I didn't get that. If you pass multiple q parameters to "translate" method that works. But same doesn't work with "detect" method.
My problem is unique here. I'd like to detect languages of a large number of tweets (length <= 140 characters). I don't want to mess with the API by calling hundreds of times in a minute (which is equivalent to the number of tweets indexed by my application). Batch detection would considerably reduce my API usage, but unfortunately its not supported :( On Sep 13, 5:05 pm, Jeremy Geerdes <[email protected]> wrote: > You are correct that the API does not support the submission of multiple q > parameters.
