Microsoft Translator has expanded its language support and now includes 20 more Indian languages – Assamese, Bengali, Bhojpuri, Bodo, Dogri, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Kashmiri, Konkani, Maithili, Malayalam, Marathi, Nepali, Odia, Punjabi, Sindhi, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu.
With this expansion, Microsoft Translator has come closer to achieving its goal of supporting all the official Indian languages and now covers the languages spoken by approximately 95% of the population of the country. Any errors in the original text have been corrected.
Microsoft says that this new update is expected to impact nearly 61 million people. Bhojpuri, which is spoken in eastern Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Jharkhand, has around 51 million speakers. Bodo is spoken by approximately 1.4 million people in the states of Assam and Meghalaya, as well as in neighbouring Bangladesh. Dogri, on the other hand, has 1.6 million speakers in Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and Punjab. Meanwhile, around 7 million people in Jammu and Kashmir and parts of neighbouring Pakistan speak Kashmiri.
The availability of technology-based solutions across different languages will help drive democratic empowerment. Microsoft’s collaboration with Jio Haptik, and the integration with Microsoft Translator, plays a pivotal role in bridging linguistic divides and empowering India’s diverse communities through technology access for all major Indian languages.
The Microsoft Translator app, Edge browser, Office 365, Bing Translator, and the Azure AI Translator API are all ways to access the translation feature. This feature enables users to translate between over 135 languages and the newly introduced languages for their apps, websites, tools and workflows.
Additionally, businesses can make use of the Azure AI Translator to obtain multi-language support for e-content translation, translation of product catalogues for e-commerce, internal communication, and product documentation. Companies like Jio Haptik and Koo are already using the Azure AI Translator API.
The company says that Translator’s enhanced coverage will enable better opportunities for education and literacy by aiding comprehension in native languages. It will also improve governance, communication, and information outreach in those languages. This expansion will create new economic opportunities for local artisans and businesses, allowing them to connect with a broader audience. Most importantly, it will contribute to the preservation of indigenous knowledge and cultural identity by bridging the gap to the mainstream.
