Translation with Voice Output
The voice translator returns text transcripts and spoken audio in the target language. After converting speech to text, it plays natural-sounding audio using text-to-speech.
Voice output features:
- Natural pronunciation across 100+ language voices, including regional accents
- Adjustable speech rate to slow down or speed up the translated audio
- Gender selection for male or female voice options in most languages
- Instant playback during live conversations
- Downloadable audio files of the translated speech
Use voice output for language learning, accessibility, or any setting where reading text is not practical — phone calls, driving, or hands-free meetings. The spoken translation also helps with pronunciation and intonation.
