Read more…Google Translate is one of the most incredible testaments to the power of technology. With just a few keystrokes, you can translate any phrase into a huge number of languages. With the latest update, that number has grown to 133. These new languages are spoken by a whopping 300 million people, so this update figures to be very impactful.
Why has it come along now? Well, these languages have been added to Google Translate via a new technology the company is calling "Zero-Shot Machine Translation". There aren't huge datasets of human translations for these languages, which is what Google uses to teach Translate more widely and traditionally-documented languages.
Zero-Shot Machine Translation will teach the model via monolingual text. This means it will be able to translate a language without ever actually seeing an example. Google warns that "while this technology is impressive, it isn't perfect," and states it will continue to work to improve it.

Google Translate was first launched in 2006, initially relying on United Nations and European Parliament transcripts for linguistic data. It translates more than 100 billion words every day. The program's most recent update, in May 2020, added 5 new languages.
Google prides itself on the use of its software to break down barriers and connect communities, and hopes the latest update will extend these benefits to "those whose languages aren't represented in most technology."
