Thanks for the suggestion.
It looks that "Translate to English" option was in 3.x version but I've removed it when added Translator feature based on Bergamot engine. I thought that having two independent "translators" would be too confusing for the users and difficult to clearly represent in the user interface, but...
You're not the only one asking this, so it's clear that there is value in having this option. I will re-enable it in the next version.
BTW, Whisper can also translate from English to non-English language. It doesn't work for all languages and models but for few. When your, for instance, set "Whisper Large-v2" for Spanish and say something in English, the decoded text will be a translation to Spanish. Probably this is a "side effect" of using GTP model 🤔 I didn't figure out so far how make this "hidden" feature usable because it is not super deterministic (e.g does not work for all models).

@devSJR Exactly. It is very non deterministic. You cannot "force" engine to always translate to German. At least I didn't find any option for this. On the other hand, translation to English is very reliable and supported both by whisper.cpp and Faster Whisper.
Option to force translation to English is already implemented (2d52f56) and will be in v4.4.0.

It works for German. 🤯
English (FasterWhisper Large-v3)
Edit: now, I understand what you mean. There are some sentences, that Whisper will not translate. For example, if I exchange a commonly used word for a less commonly used word with a very similar meaning. In this case, the following happens. The model is set to English. I speak German. One sentence will be in correct German. The other sentence is translated in correct English.

"Translate any Whisper language into English" added in: 2d52f56
Change is included in v4.4.0,
