Languages that are overwhelmingly represented are European, and had largely overlooked high linguistic diversity in other regions such as Africa and the Americas. Despite that, existing translation services only cover around 100 languages in total. Google said that the technology of Machine translation (MT) has made significant advancements in recent years, as deep learning has been integrated with natural language processing (NLP), and WMT research benchmark performance soared. The update was part of Google’s effort in “Building Machine Translation Systems for the Next Thousand Languages.” Google describes building high-quality monolingual datasets for over a thousand languages that do not have translation datasets available and demonstrates how one can use monolingual data alone to train Machine Translation models. Google created “monolingual datasets by developing and using specialized neural language identification models combined with novel filtering approaches” for these languages.Below is the complete list of new languages added to Google Translate in their update: Google on Wednesday, announced their expansion on Google Translate to support 24 under-sourced languages, including Ilocano through ‘unlocking zero-resource machine translation’.
