What is Q translate?
With QTranslate, you can convert chunks of text to any of your desired languages or directly translate specific words. It works seamlessly across your system—whether you are in a Word document, web browser, or any other application where text selection is viable. It supports virtual keyboards, enabling you to effortlessly type in characters that your default keyboard does not offer.
Moreover, easy hotkey combinations can trigger instant language transcription. For instance, pressing ‘Ctrl+Q’ will show the translation in the popup window, while hitting ‘Double Ctrl’ will display it on the main window. It can also interpret through speech and image text recognition, thanks to the OCR API provided by OCR.SPACE. Handy features like spelling check, word suggestion, and translation history can be enjoyed within the app.
Whenever you highlight a text, three you can see three modes. First, the QTranslate icon appears right beside your cursor. The second is the popup window that contains the translated format of the words or phrases you selected. Lastly, it’s still translation, but this time the tabbed texts are read out loud. You can quickly do this by pressing Ctrl+E. Meanwhile, the Ctrl+Shift+Q keys will perform a dictionary search.
