Blogger's Translate Feature - November 20, 2023

 

Did you know Blogger has a convenient translation feature enabling you the viewer to read my entire blog in your language of choice?  

Where is it?  It can be found on the right hand scroll bar of my blog between the Search This Blog and Bandcamp Fridays 2023 gadgets.  By tapping the down arrow and choosing your preferred language voilà, you're ready to enjoy Vavaland in your own language!  You can also hover over any text with your cursor and while reading the original text at the same time.  How cool is that!

When I published my first post in 2012, I translated it into French, my second language. The result was acceptable but needed some work.  

Fast forward to 2023.  Today as a test, I used this feature to translate Vavaland into French, German and Italian, the European countries that frequently visit Vavaland. I must say Google Translate is much better and has significantly improved over the years.  Next time you visit Vavaland, give it a try!
