I pulled out Google Translate to transcribe the speech as it was happening. As she was telling the story, the English translation appeared on my phone so that I could follow along—it fostered a moment of understanding that would have otherwise been lost.
Transcribe will be rolling out in the next few days with support for any combination of the following eight languages: English, French, German, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Thai. To try the transcribe feature, go to your Translate app on Android , and make sure you have the latest updates from the Play store. You can pause or restart transcription by tapping on the mic icon. You also can see the original transcript, change the text size or choose a dark theme in the settings menu.

If your summer travel plans will take you to faraway lands, then there are two items that are indispensable for your trip: your passport and the Google Translate app.
Here are five ways to get the most out of Google Translate. You can't be guaranteed steady Internet access throughout your travels. For times when you are without, you can still use Google Translate if you have downloaded a language pack.
And now these language packs come with neural machine translation NMT , which improves the app's translation efforts. NMT translates complete sentences, instead of just parts of a sentence, while also looking at the broader context for more accurate results.
Before this change, you got NMT only when the app was online, leaving offline translations to rely on more basic tools.
