TL;DR

  • Google Translate is getting an update that offers helpful alternatives to phrases, idioms, and colloquialisms.
  • Tapping on “Understand” provides a detailed overview, and the “Ask” button lets you ask follow-up questions.
  • The update is rolling out today for users in the US and India.

Every language has common sayings, like break a leg, bite the bullet, and beat around the bush. While these idioms may make sense to you, they may not make sense to someone else who speaks a different language. To solve this problem, Google is rolling out an update to the Translate app that will help you find the right idioms and colloquialisms.
