mobile applications Skype Translator is a speech to speech translation application developed by Skype, which has operated as a division of Microsoft since 2018.
Users converse in their native languages, and the speech is translated from one language to the other in “near real-time”,[7][8] with the output translation presented by computer-generated speech synthesis.
The current version supports speech translation to and from English, French,[9] German, Chinese (Mandarin), Italian,[10] Spanish,[11] Portuguese, Arabic, Japanese and Russian.
[12] The application also features on-screen text transcripts of the spoken phrases in their original language along with the translation.
This functionality is available to users following automatic updates to their Skype desktop app.
