I want to write data from API to file, but i get weird characters written to file instead of string



import requests
end_url = url `+ "?key=" + api_key + "&lang=en-ru" + "&text=" + "Hello
world"
response = requests.get(end_url)
str = response.json()["text"][0]
print(type(str)) # class 'str'
print(str) # string that i want to write to file
file = open("translate.txt", 'r+')
file.write(str)


It should write string which i get from API to file, but it writes this:
�����`
