Google has added a slew of new features to its translation app Google Translate.

The main goal of this redesign is to increase relevance and provide accurate context when querying. To achieve that goal, Google has leveraged its artificial intelligence (AI) to help the system formulate nuanced and context-rich answers to translation queries.
What does this mean exactly? With the help of AI, Google Translate will be better at applying local idioms and matching words depending on your intention. For example, asking how to order bass guitar for dinner will yield different results than asking how to play bass guitar at a jam session. These kinds of simple mix-ups used to be the bane of translation apps.
These AI improvements will first be available for translation jobs in English, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish. More languages will be rolled out in the coming weeks.
