Need to translate Welsh to Bengali?
Well, this is your site. Google Translate provides instant translations among 70-something different languages.
l use it all the time. As with any electronic translator, the translations are in many cases far from perfect, so do not use Google Translate to translate your English unless you don’t value the outcome.
Google Translate is more useful as a way to check details of what a thinking human brain has already produced than as a way to create new and literate copy. The five-star rating doesn’t mean it’s perfect. It is, however, an amazing resource.
You can also listen to pronunciations. I find that very helpful when I am staring at a grammar book with no clue how to say the word confronting me.
For your mobile needs, there is a nice Google Translate app as well.
