Twitter App now Comes with Tweet Translation

tweet translator

Communication is one of the most important part of social life – it is important to be able to convey your message to other people and also understand what others are saying. However, we are still mostly limited to just 2-3 languages on average when it comes to communicating with other people. When it comes to the internet translation through machine is a good solution for communication but not a reliable one. Now Twitter also wants to join this machine translation revolution and is now adding a new feature to its iOS and Android Apps being called “Tweet translation”. The new feature will be powered by Bing Translator.

Using the new feature, people will be able to read all tweets which are sent in foreign languages. It is quite simple to use tweet translation – just click on the globe icon on any foreign language tweet you receive and you will be able to see a translated version of it. Of course, it won’t be a perfect translation as we all know that machines are not able to do that currently. However, you will still be able to get a hint of what the other person is trying to say.
