Google prepares Duolingo rival using Translate
AI-powered language practice may become part of Google’s paid tools.
Google Translate may soon evolve into a full-featured language learning tool, introducing AI-powered lessons rivalling apps like Duolingo.
The latest Translate app release recently uncovered a hidden feature called Practice. It enables users to take part in interactive learning scenarios.
Early tests allow learners to choose languages such as Spanish and French, then engage with situational exercises from beginner to advanced levels.
The tool personalises lessons using AI, adapting difficulty and content based on a user’s goals, such as preparing for specific trips.
Users can track progress, receive daily practice reminders, and customise prompts for listening and speaking drills through a dedicated settings panel.
The feature resembles gamified learning apps and may join Google’s premium AI offerings, though pricing and launch plans remain unconfirmed.
