Frequently asked questions about translation

How accurate is machine translation?

Modern machine translation is very good for getting the gist and for common language pairs, but it still slips on idioms, tone, names and ambiguous phrasing. For anything important — legal, medical, or public-facing — have a fluent human review it.

Can it translate whole documents or just text?

This tool handles text you type or paste, which covers messages, phrases and short passages well. For large documents with formatting, a dedicated document-translation service preserves layout better.

Which languages can I translate between?

It supports the major world languages most people search for — pick the source and target from the lists. Quality is generally highest between widely used pairs and a bit rougher for less common languages.

Is it free and private to use?

Yes, it's free with no sign-up. As a habit with any online translator, avoid pasting sensitive personal data (passwords, full account numbers), since the text is processed to produce the translation.

How do I say common travel phrases in another language?

Translate short, simple sentences one at a time — “Where is the bathroom?”, “How much is this?”, “I don't eat…” — which machine translation handles reliably. Learning the handful you'll actually use beats translating on the spot every time.
