Teams Interpreter Enables Real‑Time Translation During Meetings
With Teams Interpreter, meeting participants can listen in their preferred language in real time. The feature uses AI to translate spoken language during live meetings, making communication and collaboration easier across language barriers.
With the Teams Interpreter feature, participants can listen to a real-time translation of what is being said in a meeting in another language. The feature uses AI to translate spoken language during live meetings and can be a valuable support in international collaborations, guest lectures, webinars, and meetings where participants speak different languages.
Each participant can choose which language they want to listen to, allowing people with different language backgrounds to follow the same meeting in their preferred language. The feature supports a selection of languages, and Microsoft continues to develop and expand language support over time.
To use the feature, open the three-dot menu (More) during a Teams meeting. There you will find language and speech options, as well as the ability to enable interpretation. The appearance of the feature may vary slightly depending on the Teams version and the features available to the user.
If you participate in international meetings or collaborate with colleagues, students, or external partners from other countries, Teams Interpreter can be a simple way to make communication more accessible and inclusive.
