How Google Translate works

“When Google Translate generates a translation, it
looks for patterns in hundreds of millions of documents
to help decide on the best translation for you.

By detecting patterns in documents that have already
been translated by human translators, Google
Translate can make intelligent guesses as to what an
appropriate translation should be.

This process of seeking patterns in large amounts of
text is called "statistical machine translation". Since
the translations are generated by machines, not all
translations will be perfect.. “
