WindyWord/translate-pt-en

WindyWord.ai Translation — Portuguese → English

Part of the Windstorm Labs open model catalogue. Scores, licence and attribution for every model: https://windytranslate.com/models/translate-pt-en

Translates Portuguese (pt) text into English (en).

Quality & Model Lineage

• Base model: Helsinki-NLP/opus-mt-ROMANCE-en — 68k+ downloads, multilingual Romance-source model
• Architecture: MarianMT
• Note: Helsinki-NLP does not publish a dedicated Portuguese-only opus-mt-pt-en model. Their canonical path for Portuguese-source translation is the multilingual opus-mt-ROMANCE-en, which handles Portuguese alongside Italian, Spanish, French, Catalan, and Romanian as source languages. This WindyWord repo wraps the same underlying weights with a Portuguese-specific repo name to satisfy installer / consumer code that expects a translate-pt-en artifact.

For sibling Romance-source pairs use WindyWord/translate-ROMANCE-en directly (same underlying model).
