In addition to their other features, these pocket electronic translators allow you to enter your own random sentences. The other person can then read the translation and reply with a random sentence--which you can then read in English.
Multis
You'll notice there are two-language translators (one language paired with English) and multi-language translators. The multi-language translators compile the individual language pairs. If this feature (it's called full text translation) exists for a language pair, you will find it on that pair also on the multi-language device.
Specs
To see the specifications of a given sentence translator, click on it and then click the Specs tab. You'll notice that for any given series, there are common specifications. And for any given model, there are specifications relevant to that model.
Speech
The technology to provide "speech to speech translation" is unlikely to exist in your lifetime. Thus, nobody actually sells a translator that does such a thing. Men take the Russian version of what is available to Ukraine and come back with brides. So, we know existing technology works just fine for two people to really communicate.
The iTravl and 900-series electronic translators provide several easy to use translation tools. Because these tools all work in both directions, they allow two people with different languages to communicate.
Full text translation. Enter your own random sentences. Available only in certain languages (see the specs tab).
Translation dictionary. Look up single words. Natural human voice output in many language sets (see specs tab).
Translating phrasebook. Contains 7,000 phrases per language (so 14,000 on any two-language translator). Natural human voice output regardless of language. Speech recognition feature for selecting phrases.
Pictured dictionary. Contains hundreds of words in 183 different languages, plus natural human voice output. Translates between any two languages, and shows picture of what is being translated.
The iTravl and 900-series translators provide several easy to use language learning tools.
Language Teacher (most models, see specs tab). The interactive language teacher system is a powerful tool for learning other languages. It can listen to you and tell you how well you pronounce something in another language.
Mobile Infotainment System (select models only, see specs tab). Basically, a hands-free version of Language Teacher.
Linguistic Crossword. A crossword puzzle that helps you learn new words in the target language.
Linguistic Flashcards. Four different flashcard games that help you learn new words in the target language.
In addition to the translating and learning tools, you will find these (and even more) features on the iTravl pocket translator and 900-series pocket translator (the main ones where you find the sentence translation feature).
Speech to speech translation. We want to be very clear about this. You cannot talk into a translation device and get a translation out.
A stun setting. While this would be extremely useful in airport lines and rock concerts, it is unfortunately not included.
Also, your particular language set may not offer all of the available
features described in the general part of this page. See the Specifications Table to see what your language set does and does not have.
Pkgs
DeluxeThe iTravl also comes in a Deluxe version (for certain language pairs). This means you get a scanning pen and cradle charger with it. That's a pretty sweet deal, when you compare the package price to the individual prices.
The 900-series also gives you a Deluxe version, which again is a scanning pen bundled at a cost-savings.
Grand
The 900-series Grand version is a Deluxe, but also with a GPS and:
GPSR module.
4GB language card w/ US map GPS.
Car holder.
Car power adapter.
Headphones with mic.
Pouch.
Manuals
We provide the manual for every pocket translator, and you can download it for free before buying the actual translator. You'll see a Resources tab on the product page of each translator, and the download link is there. Also, the iTravl and 900-series pocket translators have the manual onboard.
That said, these devices are so simple to operate that most people can start translating without ever having used the manual.
Cards/Acc's
The Secure Digital (SD) card defines the device for touchscreen translators (iTravl, 900). So for any given language set, that SD card comes with it. But you can also buy additional language pairs or sets of pairs on SD cards to expand your device.
We offer the complete line of accessories for all of the translators we sell. You can find accessories from the Accessories tab of the product page for any specific translator.
