Google has made an app that will allow you to talk to someone in two different languages. When you start the conversation you will put in the two different languages you want to use and then it will do the rest. Creating the conversation more fluent for both sides of the conversation.

Interesting Facts in the story

1.       Google Created an app to speak in two different languages in one conversation

2.       There are over 7 languages you can talk in

3.       They are making something similar for skype

These facts are important to the story because they show the key points in the story and let us know about what they have created. The most important facts are that this app is made by google and not a bigger cooperation that makes apps such as Apple or Microsoft. Another fact is that they added 7 languages right off the bat. I would understand maybe 3 or 4 just to try it out but I’m surprised that they did all the work to add 7 languages.

 This article is not bias just an informational article. The article is just truly to let the consumer know what they are working on and what new stuff is coming their way.  My thought on this is that it’s interesting and a cool idea to do something like that. There is nothing like this out on the market and I think it is a really good idea.  It will allow the average person to be able to talk to anyone on the planet in a smooth and fluent conversation.
