  <string>ru-pl</string>
  <string>ru-uk</string>

  <string>ru-fr</string>

Code	Value	Description
`ERR_KEY_INVALID`	`401`	Invalid API key.
`ERR_KEY_BLOCKED`	`402`	This API key has been blocked.

In the JSON interface, instead of XML elements, JavaScript objects are returned with the same names and semantics:

["ru-ru","ru-en","ru-pl","ru-uk","ru-de","ru-fr","ru-es","ru-it","ru-tr","en-ru","en-en",
"en-de","en-fr","en-es","en-it","en-tr","pl-ru","uk-ru","de-ru","de-en","fr-ru","fr-en",
"es-ru","es-en","it-ru","it-en","tr-ru","tr-en"]

In the JSONP interface, the same JavaScript objects are returned to a callback function (for example, "myCallback"):

myCallback(["ru-ru","ru-en","ru-pl","ru-uk","ru-de","ru-fr","ru-es","ru-it","ru-tr","en-ru",
"en-en","en-de","en-fr","en-es","en-it","en-tr","pl-ru","uk-ru","de-ru","de-en","fr-ru",
"fr-en","es-ru","es-en","it-ru","it-en","tr-ru","tr-en"])
