On a basic level, machine translation performs simple substitution of words in one natural language for words in another, but that alone usually cannot produce a good translation of a text, because recognition of whole phrases and their closest counterparts in the target language is needed. When translating an entire web page, users are allowed to browse the original web page text and translation in parallel, supported by synchronized highlights, scrolling, navigation and language detection. Microsoft developed a translation portal as part of its Bing services to translate texts or entire web pages into different languages. Microsoft Translator implements statistical machine translation platform to translate between 55 languages developed by Microsoft Research, as its backend translation software. However, because English, like all human languages, is ambiguous and depends on context, this can cause translation errors. Google does not translate from one language to another, but often translates first to English and then to the target language. The Google translator supports more than 100 languages Google Translate is based on statistical analysis of texts rather than traditional rule-based analysis. to translate written text from one language into another.
