Have you used the Google Translate app while traveling? If so, do you have any other tips for using the app? 😎
You can also change the speech regions for the different Spanish like you was saying different words in Spanish or Latin America have different means so go into the settings and scroll down and select speech and and click on Spanish see all the different countries for different Spanish language
Wow, that’s an awesome tip. Thanks for sharing! 👍
Thanks

This is one of the most useful videos I've seen on travel so far! Keep doing what you do, thank you!
Thanks Jocelyn! Glad the video was useful. 😊
Thanks, Ernest. I never knew Google Translate could do all that, and it does! VERY helpful video!
Thanks, Bruce! Glad the video was helpful. 😊
Ernest Happy Friday ! It’s a great app I’ve used before . Thank you for the tips your amazing 💯😉🙏🏽
Thanks Jose! Hope you have a great weekend. 😊
Used app during a recent trip to Japan. I was blown away with its ability to read signs and other written text. I enjoyed the conversation feature since english is rarely spoken in Japan. I recommend it to anyone who wants to communicate with locals.
Thanks for sharing your experience! I'm glad to hear that worked well in Japan. 😎
Just watched the video (again!) after returning from a couple weeks in France, where I had forgotten the feature that lets you point your phone at a sign or menu to get a translation. Thanks for the reminder on that, as well as the save feature.
As for the use of the handwriting feature, I found that, in French as in some other languages, I'm sure, the accent makes all the difference, yet is difficult to type. With a handwritten word or phrase, i can easily add accents to ensure a better translation.
Finally, I think you meant the verb "err" rather than "air" in your topic title late in the video.
Thanks again, Ernest, for a great and very practical video. Despite being pretty conversant in French myself, I found myself using the app multiple times a day.
Awesome. Glad the video was helpful. It's definitely a useful travel app! 😊
We are planning to go to India for our 7th trip, shortly. On seeing a tiger which I record on You Tube, I expressed my frustration of not knowing what was being said between the wildlife park guides, as we never understood what what being said. Some of the You Tube commentators said we should learn Hindi, not that practical when on a three week trip. So this trip I plan to use all you have provided us with here. Absolutely top quality video, so so useful. When I got to a level I thought you have given me all I needed to know, you went and provided more information that you only gain with experience. BRILIANT, superb, your parents trained you well!!
Glad that the video was helpful. I hope you have a wonderful trip to India! 😎
Was a life saver in China, the girl at the restaurant was speaking to the app and I would just type. She helped us get a taxi!
That's awesome! 👍
This thing is AWESOME! My wife of 30 years speaks fluent Italian * first gen American... I tested it just a few minutes ago...She to me and me back to her in Italian...So cool! I have a moto G5 Android OS...Works perfect!
Molto bene! 👍😎
@@TripAstute :)...

Thank you. Big help. Stay safe.
Thanks! Glad the video was helpful. Hope you're staying safe and healthy too. 👍
i was just about to drop $90 on a translating device, i didn't know google did all the same things for free... you saved me money and anguish 😂
Awesome. Glad the video was helpful. It's definitely a handy service, especially when traveling. 😊
Thanks this was a great help I'm going to use this in SANTA DOMINGO
Awesome. Glad the video was useful! 😊
Great app. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching! 😊
Great stuff I travel a lot never thought of this 😉
Thanks! Glad the video was helpful. 😊
Superb. Nice clear explanation. Thankyou for spending the time to do this. 👍🇬🇧
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. 😊
A really helpful video. Thanks.
Thank you! I'm glad to hear that the video was helpful. 😊
very very useful my friend
Thank you! 😊
Great video, Thank you.
Glad you liked it! 😊
Love the graphic "Air on the formal side". I wonder how Google translate would translate that when written?!?! Moral of the story....Be careful when typing to ensure accuracy.
So true! 😂
I've switched from using Google Translate because it often gives direct answers that aren't very accurate. Instead, I've started using Immersive Translate, which conveniently displays both the target language and the translation outcomes on the same page. This way, I can better understand the context and nuances of the language.
Thanks for the tip. I should check out Immersive Translate as well! 👍
I saved your video,thanks so much 👍😀
Thank you! I'm glad to hear that the video was helpful. 😊
Amazing language learning app.
I agree! 🤓
Ernest, thank you for the very informative video.
As you point out in your video, Latin American Spanish is somewhat different.
If going to Santiago Chile as we will eventually be doing, do you have any suggestions for Chilean Spanish? Will the Google translate Spanish be good enough?
Thanks! The Chilean Spanish is known to be extremely difficult. I have a feeling that you'll likely be able to communicate out using the app (i.e., English to Spanish translation), but incoming translations might be a struggle due to the dialect.
Thanks alot
Thanks for checking our video and channel! 😊
Just download the app. Very handy. Thanks.
Awesome. Glad the video was helpful! 😊
I use it extensively while traveling.
GT thinks it knows what you want to say and then provides translation. in summary, it translates your text to its understanding and then translates that into your target language. It's accurate as long as it understands what you're saying, and this is more than sufficient for traveling. It will get you by with some errors, but it will get you by.
But my main usage of GT is where it falls short.
I am learning another language. So, I form sentences in my head then feed them to GT. I want a literal translation. Doing this, I can correct my mistakes and learn from my errors. I want to know exactly what I've said, and not what GT thinks I want to say.
For a language learner, GT falls short. IMO
I agree with you. It's definitely has it's limitations, especially for those that are learning the language.
Hell yeah 😎
👍
any Idea how to get rid of a phrase that I have copied to the clipboard? (paste) is on the screen and I cant get rid of it?
2023: Great video, thank you
Thank you! Glad the video was useful. 😊
Ciao amico!
Ciao amico! 😎
It is true that I do not travel, but I use this Google Translator in conversation on WhatsApp . However, when I want to translate an inscription with a camera in a newspaper or other magazine, translated subtitles merge with other letters or are translated inaccurately. I have a second translation application and better translates word text or from the picture . This translator is called Camera Translator .
Thanks for the tip. I'll have to check out the Camera Translator app. 👍
How do u talk and translate on Whatsapp....while talking words Printing
Thank you
Thank you for checking out our video and channel! 😊
Google App is appreciated and works great. It could use some improvements however.
Yeah, I agree. It seems like Google has stopped actively developing it, which is a real shame. 🙁
Very useful. Thanks. BTW the last graphic should be 'err on the formal side' not "air" ☺
Thanks. I missed that one! 😊
@@TripAstute learned from you and plan to put into practice soon. Thanks again.

Happy Eyes!
Hey Earnest!
I have an Old Navy store card & I don’t use it.I don’t really need the card.If the issuer close this acc due to not using,will that have a bad impact on my credit report to other issuers rather than losing the average age?
Thank you!
It will definitely have a negative effect on your credit score, but it is recoverable. I've been in the situation in the past as well. In fact, I had two cards from Capital One that were closed last year because of inactivity.
Hi Shukaynet, maybe you could upgrade to their cobranded Visa card?
roxcyn well,it’s actually a Old navy store card from Synchronoby bank.
So i am not sure if they have any non store credit cards
@@shujayethossain6554 - Yes, because I have it. I have their Old Navy Visa. The reason I was suggesting it, they have promos to get the certificates to spend at their stores. If you no longer shop there for yourself, you could use the certificates for gifts or even donating them to a less fortunate person. The bonus to you is that if they allow you to upgrade, you can keep your old tradeline alive.
Im wondering why i dont see the full screen icon
It's likely that the app has changed since I created the video.
Thanks for this. Just one thing though re. item 7) - "Err" is the correct spelling of "Air".
Thanks for the catch and clarification! 👍
@@TripAstute No worries!
cool...Can google lens do the same?
I believe so. Google Lens can pull text from images and do a real-time translation.
how to use it when speaking
Google Lens is better for the camera. It's instantaneous and translates everything on the screen.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to give it a try. 👍
Is it completely free? What are the caveats?
It is free. I'm sure Google uses the data collected for something, but to me, it's worth the trade-off. 🤓

I use Google translate to work with immigrants. I am just learning and discovered today that you cannot use google translate microphone when you are on a call. The microphone will only work with the call.
Good to know! Thanks for sharing. 👍
Can you translate on Whatsapp...while talking?😊
I wouldn't be surprised if that feature is coming soon, especially with all the new developments in AI. 🤓
#7 should be, "Err on the formal side."
You are correct. Sorry for the mistake!
Parli il giapponese? 😯
Si! Parlo giapponese. Mia mamma e giapponese, ma mio papa e armeno. 😉
The handwriting tool is nit in the Google translate now any more
That's a shame. Thanks for letting us know!

? 🤔
Thanks for the overview, but i would have liked to see a tutorial, oh well back to RUclips.
impossible to learn how to use it
Microsoft translator is 3x better and cheaper
Thanks for the tip. I’ll have to check it out! 👍
I doesn't translate Filipino to English, only the other way around.
Just spent an hour on google help only to find the app only works offline for text transalations not for voice so a waste of time downloading needed languages
talking too fast!!!!
Sorry about that. I guess it’s a good thing that I quit making videos. 😞
Offline speech does not work. Every informational post on this subject studiously ignores the only problem and instead explains everything anyone who has average chops already knows. Why do you torture people?
