The problem could be anywhere where you transform strings. Your output mechanism has to fully support it, including the fonts to present the data which must include the glyphs needed. Outputting to the console may fail.

For a "simple" language translator: Call the Google Translate API.

storing the character is only one part, another part is whether the application displaying the character
1) knows what the encoding is
2) knows how to display that encoding

Are you going to tell us *what* errors are occurring, or are we supposed to guess?

You are using an unsupported third-party API that seems to be outdated. AND you are missing one important line from their sample code.

Just use it via the official REST API. There are samples for Java at the official page.

No, you can use a REST API from within a desktop app just fine.
