I've been trying to move away from Google Translate, it's so good though. Any adequate open source alternatives? Bonus points if it has a phrasebook and if I can import mine from Google.

https://www.deepl.com/translator has web interface and standalone application for any system

not open source, but works really well

Their privacy policy explicitly says that everything you put in it will be used for train their algorithms. So, if the only goal is avoiding Google as such - deepl is ok, if the goal is avoiding of "leaking" of your data - it is not a good alternative.

ok, that's fair point
