share the code of on click, point where you are calling translateFrench. I have a feeling you are sending the wrong view

You should use setTag method before calling getTag. Please make sure that you care doing that.

you need to call setTag() before getTag()
I think you can find useful information at this post
What is the main purpose of setTag() getTag() methods of View?
Do I have to add Tags in xml for each of the buttons..? Or I can do it inside the java part. I'm extremely new in this.
