Google Translate is the best-known app for translating sentences, but is it the best? Some users think not, and therefore, we bring you some alternatives In this way, you can compare and see if Google's translator is really as good (or as bad) as you thought.
Microsoft Translator
We start with a competitor translator. Microsoft Translator gives us the possibility of translating in four different ways over 60 languagesOn the one hand we can use the microphone to say a word and translate it into another language. The answer is quick, but the pity is that it only gives us a single translation, without synonyms. The same goes for the written version.
On the other hand, we have the option to translate texts from photos The tool has its limitations, but as long as we focus on written texts in a printing typeface, the result will be quick and positive. Besides, Microsoft Translator offers a tool to introduce the translator in conversations. Through a system of codes, we will be able to say phrases that will reach other users of the app translated into the language we want.
A very interesting element of Microsoft Translator is that allows us to access our translation history. As a final curiosity for geeks, among the languages it includes is Klingon.
iTranslate Voice
This Android app is a version of the also popular translator iTranslate. With this tool we can translate between a maximum of 42 languages Of course, the free version only includes 12, of which we can highlight English, French, German, Chinese , Italian, Japanese, Russian, Arabic or Portuguese.
The operation is very simple. We choose the two languages that we want to translate from the list, and click on the flag of the language from which we are going to do the translation. Then the micro will be activated and we will have to say the word. In a couple of seconds we will have the written and pronounced translation We will be able to listen to the pronunciation as many times as we want, and also, we will be offered synonyms for that same word.
