Translating the world's information with Google Translator Toolkit
9. Juni 2009
At Google, we consider translation a key part of making information universally accessible to everyone around the world. While we think
Google Translate
, our automatic translation system, is pretty neat, sometimes machine translation could use a human touch. Yesterday, we launched
Google Translator Toolkit
, a powerful but easy-to-use editor that enables translators to bring that human touch to machine translation.
For example, if an Arabic-speaking reader wants to translate a
Wikipedia
™ article into Arabic, she loads the article into Translator Toolkit, corrects the automatic translation, and clicks publish. By using Translator Toolkit's
bag of tools
— translation search, bilingual dictionaries, and ratings, she translates and publishes the article faster and better into Arabic. The Translator Toolkit is integrated with Wikipedia, making it easy to publish translated articles. Best of all, our automatic translation system "learns" from her corrections, creating a virtuous cycle that can help translate content into 47 languages, or over 98% of the world's Internet population.
Besides Wikipedia, we've also integrated with
Knol
, and we support common document types including Word and HTML. For translation professionals, we provide advanced features such as
terminology
and
translation memory
management.
For more information, check out our introductory video below. And if you're a professional translator or just a linguaphile, try
Google Translator Toolkit
for easier and faster translations. Be sure and
let us know what you think
