Language identification and translation
The Watson Language Translation service provides domain-specific translation for several domains that provide translation for different languages. The current domains are:
- News
Translates English news articles and transcripts to and from Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, French, Italian, or Spanish. It also translates Spanish to and from French. - Conversational
Translates English conversational colloquialisms to and from Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, French, Italian, or Spanish. - Patent
Translates technical and legal terminology from Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, or Spanish to English.
Check the IBM Watson documentation for a current list of domains and languages.
In the lab for this section, you’ll add a simple translation service that’s not related to a specific domain.
