Hello my fellow tech enthusiasts! Exciting news from Google – Google Translate is now adding support for over 110 new languages, making it the biggest expansion yet. This is a game-changer for language translation and accessibility around the world.
Google utilized its PaLM 2 AI language model to help Translate learn these new languages, focusing on ones that are related to each other. Languages like Awadhi, Marwadi, Seychellois Creole, and Mauritian Creole are among the newly supported languages. Cantonese, a highly requested language, is also now available on Google Translate.
About a quarter of the new languages added come from Africa, showcasing Google’s commitment to inclusivity and diversity. The majority of these languages are spoken by at least one million people, with some spoken by hundreds of millions. This expansion will make communication easier for millions of people worldwide.
So, whether you’re traveling abroad or connecting with someone from a different culture, Google Translate has got you covered with its extensive language support. Cheers to technology making the world a smaller and more connected place!
