Google now translates some Italian dialects and 110 new languages

Listen to the audio version of the article

What if technology was the means to save Milanese, Venetians, and lost local dialects and idioms in general? All credit goes to Google Translate, the world's most used translation system. Google Translate has received a significant update, introducing support for 110 new languages, including Lombard, Friulian, Sicilian, and Ligurian.

These new languages ​​represent more than 614 million speakers, opening the door to translation for about 8% of the world's population. Some are major world languages ​​with more than 100 million speakers. Some are spoken by small indigenous communities or have few native speakers, but active revitalization efforts are underway. About a quarter of the new languages ​​are of African origin, representing the largest expansion of African languages ​​to date, including Fong, Kikongo, Luo, Ga, Swati, Venda, and Wolof, explained Isaac Caswell, senior software engineer at Google Translate. The list of supported languages ​​also includes other languages ​​thought to be extinct, such as Cantonese, one of the most requested languages ​​for Google Translate, Punjabi, the most spoken language in Pakistan, and Manx, a Celtic language from the Isle of Man.

The last update in this regard was back in 2022, when Google added support for 24 languages. Adding 110 new languages ​​at once would not have been possible without the help of artificial intelligence, especially thanks to PaLM 2 Large, which powered the Google Bard chatbot before it was replaced by Gemini. PaLM 2 was a key piece of the puzzle, helping translators learn more efficiently closely related languages, such as languages ​​close to Hindi, such as Awadhi and Marwadi, and French Creoles, such as Seychellois Creole and Mauritian Creole, Caswell explained.

Setting up one of the new dialects added to Google Translate is easy. Just follow the same steps as when using the translation service: go to the main Google Translate page (or the app for mobile devices), enter the word or phrase you want to translate in the appropriate box on the left, and proceed to select the source language (e.g. Italian) and the translation language using the appropriate drop-down menus. Unfortunately, the voice feature is not available for the new languages.

Google has announced that it aims to use AI to support at least 1,000 languages, with the goal being to support even more language variants and spelling conventions as the technology advances and through continued collaboration with expert linguists and native speakers.
