Automatically translate Telegram messages to any language

This automation allows Telegram users to easily translate messages from one language to another using Google Translate.

It automatically detects new messages in a Telegram chat or channel, translates the text into a specified target language, and then sends the translated version back to the original chat or saves it to a designated destination. This enables more effective cross-language communication within Telegram communities. The automation integrates with the Telegram platform and leverages the Google Translate service to power the translation functionality.
