Translate Text

Translation converts text from one language to another while preserving its meaning. For Example: ‘मैं ऑफिस जा रहा हूँ’ translates to ‘I am going to the office’ in English, where the script and language change, but the original meaning remains the same.

Available languages:

  • en-IN: English
  • hi-IN: Hindi
  • bn-IN: Bengali
  • gu-IN: Gujarati
  • kn-IN: Kannada
  • ml-IN: Malayalam
  • mr-IN: Marathi
  • od-IN: Odia
  • pa-IN: Punjabi
  • ta-IN: Tamil
  • te-IN: Telugu
