Last week I had informed my readers about the launch of Google' translation service known as Google Translate. This service is Hindi specific and offers direct and automated translation of English text to Hindi. However, according to the Google Blog Google has added another 10 new languages to Google Translate's database, thereby bringing the total number of languages to 23. These newly added languages are Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Finnish, Hindi, Norwegian, Polish, Romanian and Swedish.

Apart from the language addition, Google Translate will also enable translation of text and web pages as well as users can now perform cross-language searches between any two languages that Google offers.

'Detect Language' option will help users automatically identify the language of the text that they are trying to translate. Even developers can benefit from these new additions by incorporating these languages in AJAX language API (Application Programming Interface).

This new update is going to be a huge help to a lot of people and would definitely be appreciated worldwide.

A good step ahead for hybrid machine translation where a certain amount of human translation is involved, yet a lot more to be desired, especially for some languages, some translation results are still more fun than useful
