TranslateIT: Android-Based Mobile Application for Multilingual Translation

Abstract

Over the years, the issue of linguistic variation has posed a significant barrier to successful information collaboration. In modern times, learning multiple languages can be both time consuming and a hectic process because of the language difference, and it can also be an expensive expenditure if a tutor is appointed for teaching the same. Language interpreters must be able to communicate in and understand both languages, because the traditional approach to handling the problem of translation is neither productive nor advantageous. TranslateIT is a mobile application that can be used to translate among 11 native languages that includes English, Afrikaans, Arabic, Belarusian, Bulgarian, Bengali, Catalan, Czech, Hindi, Urdu, and Welsh. Therefore, we have developed an android-based mobile application called TranslateIT which is a multi-language translator which has been made using firebase ML in Android Studio using Java. Because of this application, tourists will be able to communicate more effectively with locals and gain access to more relevant information, which will help them learn more about their surroundings.
