         · 词典
        
        A dictionary is a book in which the words and phrases of a language are listed alphabetically, together with their meanings or their translations in another language.
        
        
         例: ...a Spanish-English dictionary.
             …一本西班牙语—英语词典。
        ```
        
        **Note:**
        
        * Some words have a lot of translation that may occupy the entire screen.
        * Only supports English or Chinese words currently.
        
        ### Google Translate
        
        Add `-g` / `--google` to use Google Translate:
        
        ```python
        $ dict-tiny -g book
        >>> Google Translate <<<
        detected language: en
        input: book
        output: 书
        ```
        
        Add `--target-language` to specify what language you want to translate into：
        
        ```python
        $ dict-tiny -g book --target-language japanese
        >>> Google Translate <<<
        detected language: en
        input: book
        output: 本
        ```
        
        Add `--source-language` to specify what language you want to translate, but most of the time you don't need to do this because the API will automatically detect the language type.
        
        So, of course, you can use it to detect the language type:
        
        ```python
        $ dict-tiny --detect-language book
        >>> Google Translate <<<
        confidence: 1
        input: book
        language: en
        name: English
        ```
        
        **Note:**
        
        * Make sure the google service is available in your network environment.
        
        * The source and target languages for Google Translate are identified using the [iso-639-1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes) codes. 
        
          ```python
          $ dict-tiny -g book --target-language zh --source-language en
          >>> Google Translate <<<
          input: book
          output: 书
          source language: en
          ```
        
          You can also enter the ISO language name:
        
          ```python
          $ dict-tiny -g book --target-language German --source-language English
          >>> Google Translate <<<
          input: book
          output: Buchen
          source language: English
          ```
        
        ### Target language
        
        * Setting the environment variable `$DICT_TINY_TARGET_LAN` to the `target language` you prefer so that you do not have to specify the `target language` every time. `Dict-tiny` will first get `target language` from `$DICT_TINY_TARGET_LAN`. Giving the `--target-language` switch on the command line will override the environment variable value.
        * The default `target-language` for Goole Translate are `ENGLISH_ISO_639='en'`  if the content you input is not in English.
        
        ### ~~DeepL Translate~~
        
        For some reason I am no longer allowed to use deepl pro, so deepl is no longer supported.
        
        ### Default behavior
        
        * Youdao Dict is the default translator, which means Youdao Dict will be used when no translator is specified.
        * If the target language is not specified, Chinese or English will be set as the default target language.
        
        ### Use clipboard content
        
        Use `-c`/`--clipboard` to use the contents of the clipboard:
        
        ```python
        $ dict-tiny -c -y
        >>> Youdao Dict <<<
        encounter  英[ɪnˈkaʊntə(r)]美[ɪnˈkaʊntər]
        =========================================
        v. 遭遇；偶遇，邂逅
        n. 偶遇，邂逅；经历，体验；冲突；比赛，交锋
        ```
        
        ```python
        $ dict-tiny -g -c
        >>> Google Translate <<<
        input: clipboard
        output: 剪贴板
        detected language: en
        ```
        
        **Note:**
        
        * `-c`/`--clipboard` has low priority. If you add `-c` and a word at the same time, the switch `-c` will be ignored.
