Read reviews in your own language wherever you are

Former Google Contributor

Want to find out where to go in a country where you don’t speak the language? Now you can with the help of translated reviews on Google Maps.

 

Local Guides love to travel and a common request is the ability to translate reviews on Google Maps. You can now easily read reviews to discover where to go as Google Maps will display reviews  in the language you’ve set on your device. You don’t have to do anything — simply open Google Maps or Search, search for what you’re interested in, and the reviews will be automatically translated by Google Translate.

 

If you’re learning the local language or want to see the original review, it appears below the translated review, too. Now you can browse Google Maps reviews of the faraway places you have always wanted to visit!

@YanniY, I wonder how can we report if the translation is not good or incorrect?

As I found some of the translation is really bad, and the translation not even using Google Translate engine.  As I input the same sentence into Google Translate, but it output with much better result.

Hai @YanniY

This is a huge leap in the Google Maps.

 

Usually I make two language for important places In English and Bahasa Indonesia.

But now I can only Bahasa Indonesia or some local native language suh as Sundaneese or Javaneese in specific places.

Parabéns para toda a Equipe do Google!!!

Eu sempre escrevia as minhas avaliações de locais em outros em Portugues, para poder ajudar as pessoas que não tinham domínio de outras línguas... agora ficou ótimo! Todas as Pessoas poderão compreeender todos os comentários!!! 😉

Terimakasih @YanniY, ide yang sangat bagus dan sangat membantu sekali untuk wisatawan asing yang berkunjung ke Indonesia. Akan tetapi ada beberapa kekurangan untuk sistem penerjemahan ulasan di Google Maps. Yaitu apabila ada ulasan yang tidak menggunakan kata baku dan sesuai dengan konteks kalimat baku. Maka hasil terjemahan ulasan tersebut akan terlihat aneh dan lucu.

 

Saya lihat hal ini terjadi proses penterjemahan nya dilakukan oleh sistem dan tidak adanya masukkan kata-kata yang tidak baku dalam sistem. Serta tidak adanya notifikasi bagi Local Guide yang mempunyai ulasan yang menggunakan bahasa yang tidak berstandar kata baku.

 

Semoga kedepannya sistem penterjemahan ulasan di Google Maps bisa lebih baik lagi.
