Lost (and found) in Translation

3.0 4 years ago

Comments: I have gratefully used this app in multiple situations. As previously mentioned, my older aunts and uncles in Iceland were not required to learn English in school and I shudder to think that their stories would be lost to me without translation that I can provide myself. I have also used this app to ask numerous questions in Spanish while vacationing in Mexico. Lastly, I work as an emergency dispatcher and cannot express the assistance that Google Translate has provided during calls with ESL issues within the Spanish, Tagalog, Chinese, Korean, and Russian communities.

Pros:

It's free... WOW! I will be a major Word of Mouth reference source. I was super impressed to find Icelandic as a language option. I cannot say the same for the other top rated translation apps. In addition, the ability to have a "conversation" with my non English-speaking older relatives is amazing!

Cons:

Icelandic is a difficult language, and Google Translate is somewhat antiquated with the current speech patterns and verbiage. I would like to see alternative option pop ups for particular words and or phrases that in turn would alter the message all together if needed.

Fast, Easy, And Phenomenally Accurate

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: As a travel writer, I am often wandering through foreign markets looking for a good story or a great photo. This app allows me to interact and communicate with locals anywhere in the world—the audio read function was also essential in places like Russia, where I don't read the alphabet! Or other places where some of the local population may not be able to read their own script.

Pros:

I use this software daily as an expat in Spain, and I love that it's simple and easy to just type and go. The app is lightweight, so it loads in an instant on a phone, and it's a cinch to reverse the arrow and translate in the other direction (Spanish to English and English to Spanish, for example). I also like the love photo translation! Point this app at a menu or a product label and the app translates the text in the camera!

Cons:

It's certainly not feature rich if you want it to have bells and whistles. It's a lightweight app that just translates—that's all I want in a translation app (or on the website), so I think it's pretty ideal. The only downsides for Google Translate come from what all apps face: errors from machine translation. Google's error rate is lower than most though, so I love it.

I solve many doubts with this software

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: A good software that I recommend, however as I recommend using it, I also recommend that this software be used along with other language translators in order to get the translation of words, sentences and texts more accurate and appropriate to the idea that tries to reflect the author.

Pros:

Translate is another software that is never missing in my day-to-day work, and I say this because sometimes I receive documents, written research, cultural proposals and libretti that are not written in my original language. Although I speak three languages sometimes I need support to understand some words and sentences and their meanings, and translate is indicated for this task, as it allows me to introduce the word or sentence that at the time I do not understand or do not remember and translate, giving me an approximate idea of what the text is trying to express. This tool is very functional and I use it permanently.

Cons:

When I make the comparison with other software I have noticed that it does translations that are not faithful to the general ideas described in the text, this reduces a little my productivity, since the translations or readings that I make try to be as accurate as possible and this software sometimes does not allow me.

4.0 5 years ago

Comments: It is very good to not spend hours for learning new languages. Translate.com do all the work for me.

Pros:

The website and also softwares open the new research sources for me. The researcher usually shares abstract in English and rest of the parts in their own language. The Translate.com website provides documents uploading and translate directly into new document in English or other languages. Sentences and word choosing works very well. English is my second language and I also use this website as dictionary, It provides various option for each word.

Cons:

Website does not work well on Safari, stop translating. I prefer to use application provided on app store.

Translate is a powerful software for translation.

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: My overall experience has been average. There are some other translators in the market that offers more features.

Pros:

I like this software because it allows to make immediate translations from different languages and also check the pronunciation and punctuation. It also has the feature to use the microphone or photos for translation as well as the translation by a professional creating an account.

Cons:

It doesn't offer the meaning of the words as well as just offer one translation per sentence. Really limited options for the free version.

Excellent Tool; More Accurate than Google Translate

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: We're figuring out ways to connect with customers who do not primarily speak English. Our organization is in a diverse community, so it really expands our market by having the ability to at least attract clients who are not comfortable with English.

Pros:

The accuracy of Translate.com has been the strongest selling point. It routinely provides more accurate results than Google Translate. We're only using the free trial right now, but we will likely upgrade and begin using the subscription-based services in the near future.

Cons:

I have no complaints right now, as we are only on the free version of Translate. The only errors we have come across have been in certain quotations and block quotes.
