The short answer

How can you translate speech in Google Meet?

There are two practical options. Google Meet has a built-in Speech Translation feature for eligible Google AI and Workspace plans. It translates between English and French, German, Italian, Portuguese, or Spanish and creates audio in a voice similar to the speaker.

Loquora sends translation through the Loquora microphone or browser extension. It supports 58 languages, lets you read or hear translated replies, and also works with Zoom, Teams, Telegram, Discord and other calling apps.

Two ways to translate Meet

Choose based on your languages and account.

Google's built-in feature is convenient when everyone fits its language and account requirements. Loquora is useful when you need more languages or want the same translator outside Google Meet.

Use Loquora

Use the Loquora microphone in the computer app, or translate directly in a supported browser call with the extension.

Questions and answers

Google Meet translation FAQ

Does Google Meet have a built-in voice translator?

Yes. Google Meet Speech Translation is available on eligible Google AI and Workspace plans. It currently supports English paired with French, German, Italian, Portuguese, or Spanish.

Can Google Meet translate between any two supported languages?

No. Every currently published Google Meet Speech Translation pair includes English. Loquora lets you choose the source and target from its 58 supported real-time languages.

Does everyone in the meeting need to install Loquora?

No. When you use the Loquora virtual microphone or browser extension, other participants hear the translated speech directly in Google Meet.

Can I use Loquora with a personal Google Meet account?

Yes. Loquora runs separately from Google's subscription eligibility, so it can be used in personal Meet calls after you install the app or extension.

Does Loquora translate incoming Google Meet audio?

Yes. Loquora shows the other person's words as translated subtitles and can also read the translation aloud. You can turn this on in the settings.

Should I use Loquora or Google Meet's built-in translation?

Use Google's built-in option if your account is eligible and your meeting uses English with one of its five supported languages. Consider Loquora if you need a broader or non-English language pair, a personal free plan, or translation across multiple calling apps.
