    Definitely would be a great enhancement for Teams! Please give us an alternative to copy/paste to Google translate...

    There are times that the message is too long and won't translate so this function would be helpful.

    I am for a real time translation, if the translations are continuously improved.

    The current translations from popular services can be suspect at times. This carries the potential to cause confusion via misunderstanding.

    Great Idea - I would very much appriciate a live translation because in hugh organisations we always have communication issues and not everybody is regular speaking english - this option could aviod misunderstanding and have the chance to reduce Q&A sessions significantly - finally we would get more efficient

    If would be very great, if chats would be translated in real time - we would have sometimes less missunderstandings

    I totally agree with the previous comment. I work for a global company, I want to talk, read and write a global language. Sometime it takes some effort from my side, but I consider it a language training free of charge.
    The easiest way is not always the best one.

    Would be a nice feature. Could be good to have this as an optional setting for a team or a channel

    From my perspective working for a global company means communication in English. I don't need automated translations that are sometimes more ridiculous than understandable.

    I agree with this feature being added. Working for a global company, I think something like this is a must in today's global market.

    Dies wäre für unsere tägliche Arbeit eine Bereicherung. It would be grate to have a chat with real time translation

    Setting a toggle in the settings of Teams to translate text automatically would be so great.
    Teams would check the users language and if the post differs from the language, translates this post automatically.
    With the new on-the-fly language aware spell checking feature, this could be made available, with some adjustments from MS.

    I agree with this, I attended a training where the host demonstrated several apps available under the chat line that included translator, weather, restaurants which all be very helpful when the executives are travelling.

    I would love an option to translate chats in real time while still showing the original text. Team members from different parts of the world would be able to express themselves in their mother tongue and can pick up a notion of the language of their colleagues
