I’m attempting to create a japanese translator, and all of that works well. The main challenge is that I do not want japanese symbols as the translated item but instead would like the english version of the translated text. For example Hello = Konichiwa as opposed to the japanese characters the speech blocks use. I tried using the speech recognition blocks to write into a text block what the translator was saying but was returned with a ‘null’.

To translate from the Japanese symbols to English text, you may first need to use an API to translate the characters into English. Or maybe use ChatGPT to do this?
