SpanishDictionary.com and ingles.com Expand the Availability of Document, Image, and Voice Translation

New features empower premium members to navigate Spanish and English language obstacles confidently

SAN MATEO, Calif., March 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SpanishDictionary.com and ingles.com, leading online resources for Spanish- and English-language learning, have announced the expansion of Document, Image, and Voice Translation on their web platforms. Premium users can now upload pictures and documents containing text and immediately receive accurate translations in English and Spanish. Additionally, Voice Translation provides real-time transcription and interpretation of each language, making on-the-go communication easy and convenient. Whether refining everyday language skills, transcending linguistic barriers, or collaborating across cultures, learners can leverage these translation tools to enrich their language journey.

The ability to translate accurately is crucial for effective communication in our interconnected world. Understanding this need, SpanishDictionary.com and ingles.com offer more than just machine translations. With more than one million unique dictionary entries written by bilingual experts, and cutting-edge proofreading technology, the platforms ensure that translated content is accurate, grammatically correct, and contextually relevant.

Available on iOS, Android, and web platforms, Voice and Image Translation enable travelers to make more informed decisions in unfamiliar environments. For example, people visiting Spanish- or English-speaking countries can use Image Translation to effortlessly interpret menus, signs, and other visual information simply by taking photos.

Voice Translation provides people with a way to instantly converse across English and Spanish so that they can quickly navigate everyday scenarios. An English speaker seeking directions from a Spanish speaker, for instance, can tap the microphone icon on the SpanishDictionary.com app, speak, and receive an immediate translation. Learners can record multiple times and switch between the two languages effortlessly, facilitating real-time conversations. Translations are played out loud with advanced text-to-speech technology. This innovative feature allows anyone to translate on the go, overcome language barriers in the moment, and ensure that messages are accurately conveyed and received.

Additionally, Document Translation can enable a Spanish speaker to decode lengthy documents in English that might be challenging to transcribe manually. This feature not only saves valuable time but also helps users better understand text in a second language.

SpanishDictionary.com and ingles.com's features are valuable for academics and professionals as well, ensuring translated content is situationally relevant and appropriate. For example, terms and phrases that carry a specific meaning in one language may convey a different connotation when not authentically translated. Professionals can leverage the sophisticated translation features to find words of equivalent meaning, preserving the intended impact of their message.

"Document, Image, and Voice Translation empower learners to confidently navigate language barriers whether they are asking for travel advice from locals or tackling academic texts," said Debbie Chang, Vice President of Product at IXL Learning. "This helps learners connect more deeply with different cultures and allows them to hone their language skills in real-world contexts."
