Research direction

Start with the traceback at main.py line 79 and inspect translators/apis.py line 413, where the Google translation response is indexed. Reproduce the Tamil-to-English request and determine what response shape causes the IndexError; done means the request no longer crashes for the reported case and the relevant behavior is covered by a regression test.
