Articles about Google Translate
Google Translate is a free-to-use neural machine translation service developed by search giant Google. The service can be used to translate voice from recordings, websites, documents, and text from 109 supported languages to one that you understand. Google’s service is capable of automatically detecting the language of the source and as well as the language you would prefer or understand based on your location and usage history. Google translate can be accessed via a dedicated website, an Android app, an iOS app, and an application programming interface (API). The Google Translate service was launched in 2006 as a statistical machine translation tool. The tool was trained using linguistic data gathered from United Nations documents and European Parliament documents. This method would translate each word individually and then try to phrase it. The new neural machine translation system translates phrases or sentences at a time, thereby understanding context and improving translation accuracy. Google Translate’s service has been the but of several jokes recently. Google claims Translate can help have a bilingual conversation, translate text in images, translate what your camera sees in real-time, and even translate letters you draw on-screen.
