That's what i was looking for. I saw this on TV on Beyond 2000 show in 2007. They were talking about a device that does this, but not google. So at last now, google came up with this app. Now all i need to do, is to download the app on my mobile, and off i go. You don't need to learn the language anymore, they used to say, language becomes a thing of the past. Thank you google, and thank you very much Dotttech !

And all this time, I thought Google Translate was only available via the web interface. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, I traveled to Spain, China & Brazil (party central there lol) and always used the web interface to translate. I didn't know this is available as an app at all (quoting Flo from Good Times, "DAMNNNN! DAMNNN! DAMNNN!" 😂😂). I downloaded it and I will explore this one. It's DOPE! LIT! DA BOMB! Thank you so so much for sharing this. YOU DA MAN! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Downloaded Google translate before seeing this & used the camera scan for the 1st time today. Very pleased as them I could email the saved text to my gmail & then print it out. A fantasic time & effort saver to enable me (despite a few oddly translated words), to annotate & ensure I fully understand any docs from the authorities here in France. This video explained further the 'on the spot, translation ability, when in conversation..Really worth having. 4/5. Thanks !

I totally agree with you. Google Translate is a godsend! It even works with much harder languages like Russian and Chinese. My experience is that it works best when one of the languages is English since that is its base language. So, even I am Dutch, I always use English-Russian / Russian-English and never translate from Dutch to Russian. The instant translation of websites is great too. Now we can even browse Chinese or Korean websites and understand them.

You should test it w/ sayings like, "It's raining cats and dogs" Sometimes it will not work or moreover give you something totally different meaning. Also, you should for shit and giggles do curse words too! You know, most people learn the curse words in languages first. LOL!

Technology has made exploring the BIG WORLD without privileged class income a lot easier . And it has made studying any foreign language a lot more fun than you might remember in FIRST YEAR FRENCH or FIRST YEAR GERMAN or even FIRST YEAR LATIN. I have been familiar with Google Translate for years . As a student of Western Civilization I wanted to have at least some basic familiarity with the major European languages , especially those derived from the all conquering LANGUAGE of the Empire of Rome - ancient Latin . While studying Spanish at the Community College of Rhode Island a hundred years ago I had this inspiration for making vocabulary study more interesting . At the Rhode Island College Library I browsed a Spanish Dictionary itself written in the Spanish language. Just like our better English dictionaries it showed the mostly Latin derivations of everyday Spanish words in brackets. This habit of browsing in dictionaries meant for native speakers became quite mesmerizing . It made vocabulary learning in the Romance languages more interesting and there were numerous connections between common Spanish, Portuguese , French , and Italian words AND the more sophisticated English language words -the king likely to appear on a SAT college entrance test Finally, out of curiosity I looked for an All-German dictionary . At first German words seemed impenetrable -even though early English was more closely related to German than to Latin . But it became clear that the Germans were very good at building words with strictly GERMAN roots. I won't pretend to know more than I do about any language . But I know that technology has made it a lot less tedious to learn the basics of any language that really interests you. But YOU must supply the needed CURIOSITY . What I discovered last night while sitting on the steps of the Knightsville -after my routine " Twilight Walk " is pictured below : Knowing very little German I went to an on-line German tabloid . A " camera " icon at GOOGLE TRANSLATE enables you to instantly translate the headlines and story summaries. I tested the translations on Spanish and I concluded that translations were at least fairly good. This device would seem right out of Science Fiction in the 1950s and 1960s. And just possible in the 1990. One revelation from this marvelous GOOGLE TRANSLATE tool. : " PEOPLE ARE ALIKE EVERYWHERE ! " . I recall a Twilight Zone episode ending on that sad note.

Indeed, the language barrier is pretty much broken. Though it does take a bit of practice to use it smoothly in a conversation. With this new power in our hands, how shall we use it to bring about social harmony throughout the world? There is more to effective communication than knowing the words. This is where the real effort comes in. But now it can be done. Work at it.
