Ever wonder if we can one day speak to foreigners via phones without any language barriers?It might be happen sooner than we imagine.
Google is currently underway fine-tuning a speech-to-speech translation tool created for mobile phones. Essentially, with this translator on your phone- you could chat verbally with business colleagues, friends and clients without any difficulty.
They are currently working out the glitches as differences in voice pitch, accents and tone may distort the translation. Google Speech Translation mirrors what we use today- voice recognition technology. Rest assured, this will be out before we know it with Google behind this tool.
Tell us what you think!

Why not look long term and have a spoken international language, on a person-to-person basis :)
We seem to be back to Esperanto here. Just have a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2LPVcsL2k0
Dr Kvasnak teaches English at Florida Atlantic University.
