How the English translator works

The English translator uses a large language model trained on a wide range of English text. Unlike a strict dictionary translator, it considers tone, register, and idiom, so a casual sentence stays casual and a formal one stays formal.

Translations stream in real time, so you usually see the first words within a second or two. For long passages, the model takes a beat longer to keep the English natural across the whole piece.

Switch direction with the From/To selectors at any time, copy the result with one click, or download it as a card. There is no signup and no per-day limit for everyday use.

If you like the English translator, you may also enjoy Italian and Portuguese, or branch out into Latin.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my English translation read differently than Google Translate?

A language model translates by understanding meaning, register, and idiom rather than by swapping words one-by-one. Two correct English translations of the same sentence can differ in word choice while saying the same thing.

Do you store my English translations?

We do not store the text of your translations server-side beyond what is needed to generate the result. Your recent translations are kept locally in your browser so you can find them again, and you can clear that history at any time.

Does the English translator work both ways?

Yes. Pick the source language with the From selector and English with the To selector — or flip them to translate English into English. Direction can be changed at any time.

Can I translate long emails or articles into English?

Yes — the input accepts up to two thousand characters per request. For very long pieces, splitting into paragraphs usually gives smoother English output.
