Machine translation from one language to another
FRANZEE, 2017-05-25 13:14:50

Google won't ban me if I copy their site?

Hello, I am learning to write for android, but not everything is going smoothly with English, it is harder to perceive new information, especially in a non-native language. The idea was born to translate the site https://material.io/ into Russian. That is, to make exactly the same site only in Russian.
Is it possible to do this without consequences?
upd. I also try to learn English, so I thought it would be a good practice and useful for people, I already thought that the text blocks could be translated, read in Russian, then clicked and read in English for a better understanding.
Apparently if I completely copy their site (with styles), then it seems to me that something bad will happen))

For what? Translation is the best content after self-written content. But it is better to copy without imposition. Make it similar, with translated texts. A very good idea. If it doesn’t get super attendance, then many will say thanks for sure. I don't have problems reading English, but many do.
However, it will not be easy to bring to mind. I would throw it in opensource.

A lot of sites live at the expense of translated articles.
PSam don’t care about this, but in order to avoid problems with the source, it’s still worth agreeing with them.

> Question is it possible to do without consequences?
It's complicated. Even if everything is later wiped, burned and scattered to the wind, something will be deposited in the head - already the consequences.
> Google won't ban me if I copy their site?
I am not Google or Wang, but common sense tells me that there is nothing bad in translation from the point of view of a search engine.

What's wrong? What else can you get yourself into, except for a ban on Google?
In the author's monopoly? The owner (which is also Google here) gave you the right to use the work for any purpose, distribute it for a fee or not, change and distribute the changes back? Returned - these your Material Design Guidelines are free. Do not violate the terms of the contract [0], and there should be no problems.
A monopoly on trademarks? So "Material Design", it seems, is not a trademark [1].
Anything else is hard to imagine.

Google's opinion on this subject is reflected here, if any
Translation is absolutely safe
Translation with copying of the site, trademarks and everything in a row is not very fair from the point of view of the law
Exploring the site, taking out bicycles and using them on your site is safe.
Why copy everything? Do your own - an experience that you can't get from just copying. Well, you can just upload translations on GT / Habr

Just ask the permission of the authors of the site.
As a rule, everyone agrees to be translated.
