Because alphabets don't correspond 1:1 with languages (those Chinese characters may be used in Japanese, or in Korean), and thus, unless your clipboard data also has language info (i.e., that's a rich text of some kind, e.g. coming from Writer itself), you have to define the language manually anyway. But pasting does not take input language, it uses current active language of the paste site - so this question is unclear. > In 2024 one can think also to use the vocabularies the user downloaded in > order to guess the language of the current paragraph.

You are wrong. You need advanced AI for that. Any simplified approach would result in problems that we already have e.g. in language suggestion, that you have when click on the status bar's language (bug 139185). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
