Google Translate Now in 23 Languages

16 May, 2008, 2:23 pm IST | tech2 News Staff | Windows

Google has added translation capabilities for 10 new languages to Google Translate, bringing the total to 23. The newly featured languages include Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Finnish, Hindi, Norwegian, Polish, Romanian and Swedish.

Users can now translate text and web pages as well as perform cross-language searches between any two languages that Google offers. For example, Chinese to/from French.

Google has also also added a "Detect Language" option to help users automatically identify the language of the text they're trying to translate. The longer the text, the more accurate it will be. For those who have embedded the Google Translate My Page gadget in their website to give it global reach, these new languages will automatically appear.
