A translator you can carry anywhere

Nowadays, more and more people travel to see the world. However, not all countries speak English. Here enters Google Translate and other language translators that offer an instant translation of words and phrases in foreign languages. Free Language Translator is one of those apps.

True to its name, it is a no-cost application that uses text and audio inputs for language translation, helping you avoid awkward and embarrassing situations. Whether you are on a short business trip or visiting a foreign country for a week, Free Language Translator will be a big help to get your way around.

Quick voice and text translations

Free Language Translator is the perfect app forbreaking communication barriers. Recognizing more than 10 widely spoken languages, this app will surely be a big help when conversing with a foreigner. With an easy-to-navigate, intuitive interface, you can type a word or phrase in English or your native language, tap the green roundabout button, and the tool will translate it to your target language. The speaker icon is also helpful for knowing the pronunciation of a word.

The microphone feature, on the other hand, supports voice translation — converting audio input into text for your reference. To use this feature, though, you must first download and install the Google app. Furthermore, you can copy translated words, add your favorite ones to “Favorites,” or share them on social media apps, such as Facebook, Messenger, and WhatsApp. In addition, the app includes a theme changer for switching the colors of the user interface. Available colorways include gold, midnight blue, pink, purple, and many more.

Something to keep in mind

Unfortunately, Free Language Translator’s lack of image translation technology is a step down from its competitors that possess the same feature. Image translation not only makes it easier to translate image text written in a foreign alphabet or script, but also saves time on having to type walls of text. Compared to Google Translate, Free Language Translator’s supported languages are not as diverse — making it a less viable option for translating Indigenous and less spoken languages.

While the program often produces flawless translations, it’s not entirely foolproof due to inaccurate or awkward translations of words, complex sentences, slang, and idiomatic expressions. The translations lack cultural nuance and context, as well. Hence, heavily relying on this tool is a recipe for miscommunication in social and professional settings. Furthermore, the app as well as other translation programs should not be a substitute for language classes as they are only supplementary tools for learning a language.

Never get lost for words again

Overall, Free Language Translator is ahandy toolfor overseas travel. With its easy-to-navigate user interface and quick translation capabilities, it can be of big help for when you find yourself stuck in an unfamiliar place. Best of all, this app is free, so you don’t have to shell out money to learn new words and phrases. With this tool by your side, you should be able to travel across the globe with confidence.
