As part of a preview program, Skype Translator makes it possible for English and Spanish speakers to communicate in their native language, without having to learn a new one. It sounds like magic , but it\u2019s the result of years of work from Microsoft\u2019s research team and Skype to provide an early working copy of software that could help change the way the world communicates in the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Skype Translator Preview works on Windows 8.1 or preview copies of Windows 10<\/strong>, and it works by translating voice input from an English or Spanish speaker into text and translated audio. An English speaker will hear a translation from a Spanish speaker, and vice versa. Microsoft previously demonstrated the technology working between English and German, but Spanish will be the only language outside of English that will be initially supported during the preview.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2014\/12\/15\/7393665\/skype-translator-features\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2014\/12\/15\/7393665\/skype-translator-features<\/a>&#8212;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G87pHe6mP0I\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Skype Translator Sign-Up Page<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We are so excited to kick off the preview program and hope that you\u2019ll sign-up today to be part of this new chapter in communication.
