Once you’ve done that, Google instantaneously serves up the translated text on the right-side text box. All you need to do is type the text in your “starting” language on the left side, and then pick your “destination” language from the dropdown list on the right side. The system is not perfect, but in most cases it delivers free, reasonably-accurate translations in a pinch, without having to rely on human translators. Its purpose is to use a process called “machine learning” to take text that is in one language, and quickly and reliably translate it into another language. So, what is the purpose of Google Translate really?
Today, I'm going to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of Google Translate as a language learning tool, as well as all the ways in which you can use the service to benefit your learning. It is so popular, in fact, that in 2018, Google reported that the service translates approximately 143 billion words every day!īut how good is Google Translate, really? Is it really the best tool to use if you need a quick and accurate translation? Since its launch way back in 2006, there have been few translation services that are as widely used, by both language learners and non-language learners alike. If you need something translated from one language into another, what resource do you turn to?
