[nekooee]

Hi Dear,
I have these relations:
Article->(hasMany)Translate->(belongTo)translator
I need to Article->translators() and reverse

thanks

Please post the two individual relationships or the structure of all three tables.

[nekooee]

translators :

id
name

articles :

id

article_translations :

id
locale
title
article_id
translator_id

I need to Article->translators() and reverse Translators->articles()

thank you

That's a standard BelongsToMany relationship:

But the translators have no direct relationship to the articles. I want to get articles with a specific translator as well as all the articles with a specific translator.

But the translators have no direct relationship to the articles.

They are connected by the pivot table.
