Whether you’re laying down your next track, ordering take-out or communing with animals, we hope you’re having as much fun using Translate as we have building it.

Recently, a video called “Google Translate Song” ratcheted up over half a million views and became one of the most popular YouTube videos in Taiwan this month. To translate text, speech, and websites in more than 100 languages, go to Google Translate page.

Now it seems there’s a similar trend in Taiwan: using the spoken output of Google Translate as the vocals for self-composed songs or video spoofs.

Recently, two clever Translate trends caught our eye-perhaps one of them will inspire you to come up with a fun Translate trick of your own.įirst, some creative folks translated strings of consonants into German to create a new beatboxing tool. As with many inventions, though, it turns out people have found uses for the tool that we never imagined. When we built Google Translate we thought it was a cool tool, but we have to admit we had fairly straightforward ideas about what it would be useful for (lowering language barriers and making more web content available to people around the world).
