How to stop Bing translations in Twitter?
I noticed during the last days that Twitter adds a “translation” from Bing Translate to tweets when I expand a tweet in the web interface. This happens even on my own tweets.
Is there a way to turn the automatic translations off?
The translations are so bad, they aren’t even funny anymore.
What I have tried already
I searched in twitter.com/settings/account for a translation checkbox.
Switched the interface language from German to English (I post in both languages). This switches just the languages that get translated; it doesn’t stop the translations.
I checked twitter.com/settings/applications for a Bing app or something similar.
Searched the Twitter support pages for “Bing”. No useful result.
Asked the German and the English Twitter accounts.
Sent a message to Twitter via the feedback form.
I might get a feedback from Twitter later. I will update this question then. But for now, I don’t see how to turn it off.
