The new version of Google Translate, the translation service of the largest search company, comes with new improved features for more accurate translations. The news will delight many users of the service, as the translation results were often hilarious.
The company says the software is coming with a major update. Using a technique called Neural Machine Translation, Google's service stops translating word-for-word and starts realizing the meaning of entire sentences. So by looking at it in a broader context, the service will provide more accurate translations than in the past.
The new features will initially roll out in eight languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Turkish. Google found that these languages account for about 35 percent of all translation requests the service receives. It will gradually expand to all 103 languages that Google Translate currently supports.
You can try out the new improved Google Translate service from the official website, and from the Android and iOS apps .
