./main -h says that translation to English is off by default:

-tr,       --translate         [false  ] translate from source language to english
...
-l LANG,   --language LANG     [en     ] spoken language ('auto' for auto-detect)

But when I transcribe a file with non-English speech, by default all of it is automatically translated. Specifying -l auto sometimes disables translation. Setting the language explicitly translates everything to the forced language. Often poorly.

How do I disable translating the wrong language parts?
