When I tried it in reverse-French to English-that worked well too, with the response in a posh British accent.
Now when you're struggling to find a word or a phrase, you can simply speak it in English (or one of many other languages) and the app translates and repeats it-in a sexy French voice, no less. It's called Google Traduction (here in France) and Google Translate (elsewhere) it's free and it works beautifully. For a few years now, I've been waiting for Google to come out with something similar for voice and I just found out they have.turns out it's been around for more than a year. Not perfect, of course, but much better in many cases, than we could do on our own. For those of us with a less-than-perfect French, who often need to write (or read) emails and letters in French, Google Translator has been invaluable. Text translation apps have been around for years: you type in a phrase and your phone, tablet or PC gives it back to you in the written language of your choice.
