About Text Translator

Translate text the quick way: type or paste a sentence, an email, a chat message or a product description, and the translation appears while you write. The language you type in is detected, and the language buttons above the text put the most common choices one click away, including English, Chinese and Filipino.

Press the microphone to dictate instead of typing, and the speaker to hear the translation read aloud; both use the speech features of your browser, and voice input works in Chrome, Edge and Safari. Swap the languages to write a reply. For a whole file, the Document Translator translates PDF, Word, Excel and more and keeps the layout.
