Translation programs have always been troublesome as you need to keep switching back and forth between languages, since both parties generally don’t understand what each other is saying. Now an upcoming iPhone app is looking to tackle that problem by providing a double-ended multilingual translator. What it does is it offers two sets of keyboards, one for each party, allowing each person to type in their own native language and have the sentence translated at the other end, allowing both parties to converse easily. There will be 51 different languages supported, including non-Latin keyboards for languages such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Thai, Czech, Hebrew and Ukrainian. Seems pretty cool if going overseas.
