The Microsoft service provides automated translation capabilities between English and the language spoken in Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. As an example, a user can input a sentence in English and receive a corresponding translation in the target language, or vice versa. This service is accessible through a web browser, mobile applications, and an API for integration into other software.
The utility of this functionality lies in its ability to facilitate communication and understanding across linguistic barriers. This is particularly valuable for individuals, businesses, and organizations operating in international contexts. Its development reflects a growing need for accessible and efficient language conversion tools to support globalization and cross-cultural interaction, building upon decades of research in machine translation.
