Probably OT but what are you planning to do with H.G. Wells?

BTW, the original:

And the translation from DeepL 2.13:

That sounds natural to me.

To Greek:

” Ήταν ένας πολύ ομιλητικός λαός. Ζωντάνευαν την περιπλάνησή τους με γιορτές, στις οποίες γινόταν μεγάλη μέθη και στις οποίες ένα ιδιαίτερο είδος ανθρώπων, οι βάρδοι, τραγουδούσαν και απήγγειλαν.”

what are you planning to do with H.G. Wells?

Going back in time!

οι βάρδοι, τραγουδούσαν και απήγγειλαν. (the "bards were singing and reciting poetry) This makes the mistake that the verbs must be in singular because they refer to ιδιαίτερο είδος ανθρώπων (a particular kind of men) which in greek, pedantically, would be that *it* sang and recited. But apart from this, DeepL's sounds more natural to me. Albeit, it does not have a certain language I am interested in.

For those interested there is also this https://www.online-translator.com and this https://www.translator.eu/ which yield the same result, most likely frontends to the same backend

You might also be interested in duckduckgo's frontend to Microsoft

> which yield the same result, most likely frontends to the same backend

Which backend are you referring to?

Anyway using well known literature for testing quality might not be the best approach, because AIs and search engines might already be trained on prior translations done by humans.
