Google spreadsheet to translate text and detect the language in any of the cells

Google spreadsheet to translate text and detect the language in any of the cells


Question:

I was wondering if there is a way to automatically translate the text in spreadsheets. I'm aware about  =GoogleTranslate("text", "source language","target language")formula, but what I need is that  in the "text" range I can put the cell range and Google automatically detect the text in that cell. I'm not sure if that's already possible?


Answer:

Here is the formula:

=GoogleTranslate(A1;"auto";"en") 

In the above formula whatever will be the contents of Cell A1 will automatically be detected by Google and then it will be translated into language English.

Have a look at the screenshot below, I have inserted above formula in Cell B1.




Hope this will help you.
