Tips
Keep your English reply simple and direct -- complex idioms may not translate well.
Mention the target language explicitly (e.g., "translate to German") for accurate output.
If the original email uses formal address (Sie, usted, vous), Echoo preserves that register.
For Asian languages, double-check honorifics in the translated reply.
