Do we have a python signature for translation?

[raulgupta]

For example: What would be the python equivalent of:

whisper japanese.wav --language Japanese --task translate

Thanks!

The following would be equivalent (realizing the function's name may be causing confusion):

import whisper

model = whisper.load_model("small")
result = model.transcribe("japanese.wav", language="Japanese", task="translate", beam_size=5, best_of=5)

The last two arguments are just to match the default arguments in the command line, and larger model than small will be more reliable especially for translations.
