Translate messages in-line from one language to another in Google Chat

What’s changing

In continuing our effort to ensure Google Chat is your home for collaboration in Workspace, especially for global teams, Google is excited to introduce translation for me in Google Chat.

As one of the most requested Gemini enhancements  in Chat this year, translation for me will automatically detect and translate over 120 languages to a user’s preferred language. Rather than requiring users to navigate outside of Chat to translate a message, this update reduces friction and improves collaboration with colleagues, partners and customers in other parts of the world.
