Online pronunciation words and phrases in English on the topic - “Daily routine”. In addition, you can see the page
IN current years no one would even think of sitting with thick paper dictionaries foreign words. It’s more convenient to open a website and use a ready-made translation service.
In some places, handwritten and voice input is already recognized, in others – text from a picture. Voice acting is present almost everywhere. All that remains is to choose the most suitable one. But the main thing, of course, is the quality of the translation itself.
So which one? online translators Is your pronunciation better in 2017? Let's compare.
Please note that the quality of the result also depends on the specific languages for translation and the subject matter. For testing, I took a newspaper excerpt in English and tried to translate it into Russian. The quality turned out to be about the same.
Google translator online with pronunciation
Google translator onlineThe leading company has been maintaining high standards for a long time, and although they began to catch up with it, the translator remains at its best to this day. The interface is intuitive: there is a left field for entering text, and a right field for results. You paste the text into the left field, and the translation instantly appears in the right field. You can select the source and target languages and click the Translate button. However, the original language is detected automatically. Rather than explain, it’s easier to try to translate - no questions will arise about how this is done.
- The translation quality is high among online translators.
- The largest number of languages is already over 120. It is unlikely that you will need all of them, but still.
- Automatic detection of the original language. You can enter the website address in the left field. In this case, the entire site page will be translated. The limit on the text size in the field is 5000 characters.
- The interface is great.
- There is a pronunciation of words.
- There is handwritten input of the original text. There is voice input.
The translation into Russian is duplicated in Latin under the right margin. This is not a transcription, but an automatic translation into Latin (see the word “katastrofa” below)
Note that if you enter one word in the left field, Google works like a dictionary, that is, it can offer you translation options. To do this, you need to click on the word on the right, and at the bottom there will appear sentences-options on the topic of what this word could be.
Yandex online translator with pronunciation of words
Over the past couple of years, Yandex Translator has significantly expanded its range of languages - now there are more than 90 of them. It is clear that it is catching up with Google in all respects.
It is difficult to judge the quality of translation from English into Russian unambiguously; it depends on the specific text. In one excerpt from a newspaper, it showed itself to be almost identical to Google - word for word. In another passage the translation is different, but I would not say that it is worse.
Convenience is excellent, just like Google. There are some small differences.
- Also high quality translation. In any case, for the en-ru couple, Yandex has caught up with Google in terms of quality.
- Already more than 90 languages. There are Asian ones.
- Automatic detection of the original language.
- You can translate entire website pages.
- The limit on the text size in the field is 10,000 characters.
- The interface is also great.
- There is a pronunciation of words, but only if up to 300 words are entered in the field. If more, the pronunciation button is disabled.
- There is voice input.
- A translation of the pictures has appeared. You upload a picture, its text is recognized and translated in the right field.
Bing translator online with word pronunciation
This is also a long-standing translator - the brainchild of Microsoft. There are fewer different “tricks” here, but the interface and quality are also quite acceptable.
- More than 50 languages.
- Again good quality.
- The interface is a little worse, but nothing.
- Text input field up to 5000 characters.
- There is a pronunciation.
- Unfortunately, voice input is missing and handwriting input is missing.
- But the dictionary opens by clicking on each word - other meanings of the word from the dictionary are given.
So, we looked at three translator options. They all translate at approximately the same quality, apparently thanks to statistical translation algorithms. Their essence is that a huge array of data is accumulated on original-translation pairs, and the translation is taken from this array, if it is in it. So, apparently, the array is already available everywhere – all translators have it. In this case, grammatical rules are of course also used in combination with accumulated statistics.
And remember that a dictionary, unlike a translator, is always a better alternative. And if time is tight, you need to translate with a dictionary. Now among the most complete and convenient dictionaries it can be noted for its quality.
