JSONDecodeError using Google Translate API with Python3

Question

I\'ve searched thoroughly on Stack Overflow but couldn\'t find an answer to this problem. I\'m trying to use the Google Translate API (googletrans 2.2.0) for Python (3.6.2)

Answer 1

I think I may have found an answer to my own question. If I reduce the number of characters I feed to the API at once to 5k, everything seems to work fine. Strange since the Googletrans documentation says that the limit is 15k... Ah well. I will have to batch the request.
