title: Google Translate API (paid) vs Google Translate API (free)?
body: <p>I need Translate API service for my app and have chosen <a href="https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/" rel="noreferrer">Google Translate API</a>, which will cost money and require authentication against the Google API. But during the search I've found this link which looks freely available and do what I need without cost:</p>
  
  <p><code>https://translate.google.so/translate_a/t?client=any_client_id_works&amp;sl=auto&amp;tl=ru&amp;q=wrapper&amp;tbb=1&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;oe=UTF-8</code></p>
  
  <p>Try to issue a <code>GET</code> request and you'll see it by yourself.</p>
  
  <p>So, my question is what is the difference between these above services and am I authorized to use the second one?</p>
