[Yohannes]

Hello! Please help us add Somali support to Google Translate.

Google Translate is a free automatic language translation service by Google. It works without the intervention of human translators, using state-of-the-art technology instead. If you want to learn more about machine translation and find out how our translations are created, you can visit this page.

Google Translate currently supports translation between 71 languages. Our team is working on expanding this list and Somali could be one of the next supported languages with your help. If you speak Somali and English, we will greatly appreciate your help with identifying good Somali translations

Are you ready to help us? On the next pages we will provide translations and ask you to rate them.

Thank you very much for your input on behalf of Google and future Somali Translate users!

No, this is all volunteer work to train the language engine to get better translations.

Translation of Somali to English and vice versa is not accurate all the time. Besides, I don't think Google gives an exact translation of whatsoever language it has right now.

Somali isn't a standardized language. There's several ways of writing the same word and different synonyms for each word depending on dialect. If they're willing to break me off with some money, I wouldn't mind but for free? Ha kugu taagnato googley!
