English To Afrikaans Translation

Our translation service uses either Google or Microsoft to translate the text you type in English.

Whenever you type a word, sentence, or phrase in English, we send API requests to either Google or Microsoft for the translation. In return, they send back a response with the translated text in Afrikaans.

Their system leverage machine-language technologies to bring together some cutting edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (deep learning), big data, Web APIs, cloud computing, and more to perform high-quality translations.

Our English to Afrikaans translator allows you to translate up to 5,000 characters per request.

However, there is no limit to the number of translation requests you can make each day, unless the system’s daily quota has been reached.

Our online software currently does not have a feature to translate English text from an image.

However, if you have an Android or iOS device (iPhone or iPad), you can use your phone’s camera to translate signs or handwritten English notes using the native Translate app. Please follow this instruction guide.

For those using a desktop or personal computer, you can use a well-established third-party website for this task.

We recommend Yandex English Image Translator.

As explained earlier, machine translation technology is used to perform the translation. This software is evolving every day, and over time, the translations will become more accurate — especially for commonly used phrases and sentences.
