Google adds example sentences to Google Translate for more context

Dictionaries often include example sentences on them to make learning more fun and easy. Today, Google is deploying the same feature to its Google Translate service. Now, Google Translate users will have the option to view sample sentences by clicking the example sentence icon located at the left-hand text box of Google Translate. The feature will prove to be handy since sample sentences will provide more context to the words that we want to learn more about.

While it is nice to see how Google Translate has evolved through the years, it’s important to note that the product is far from being perfect. “Did you know that more than 5000 new words are created each year? At Google we’re always curious about new words from around the world, from all languages, and we think one of the best ways to understand and make sense of new words is by observing them in their natural habitat. Our latest feature does just that by providing you with example sentences taken from fresh new stories around the web,” Google said.
