A translation app hands back one correct answer and nothing else, which is fine when you need the sentence and useless when you're trying to learn why it's built that way. Why did the verb move. Why did that noun need an article it wouldn't need in English. Why did the tense change even though the English sentence stayed in the same tense throughout. This tool answers those questions every time, instead of leaving you to reverse-engineer the grammar from a bare translated sentence.

My sentence is [ENGLISH_SENTENCE].

Target language is [LANGUAGE:select:Italian,German,Portuguese,Russian,Spanish,French].

Formality is [FORMALITY:select:Informal,Formal,Either is fine].

Level is [LEVEL:select:A1 (beginner),A2 (elementary),B1 (intermediate),B2 (upper intermediate),C1 (advanced)].

Translate [ENGLISH_SENTENCE] into [LANGUAGE], matching [FORMALITY] where the language marks a formal and informal register. Directly under the translation, walk through the specific grammar choices that a word-for-word rendering would have gotten wrong: the tense or aspect chosen and why, gender or case agreement applied to nouns and adjectives, pronoun placement if the sentence has an object pronoun, and word order changes forced by the target language's own structure rather than English's.

If more than one correct translation exists depending on context or regional variation, give the most standard version first and name the alternative briefly rather than picking one silently. Keep the grammar explanation matched to [LEVEL], a short two-line note at A1 and A2, a fuller breakdown of anything genuinely non-obvious at B1 and above. Close by naming the one grammar decision in this sentence most likely to be gotten wrong by someone translating word by word from English.
