The service has the same features as Google translate and it is said to be more efficient than Google translate. On top of that, many people recommend it as the best service for beginners to learn Spanish and other languages.
2. Linguee
Linguee’s free translation tool is available as a website and as an app. Like DeepL, it also translates text, websites, audio (voice), and pictures. It provides the typical English-to-Spanish translation. However, there is a unique feature that Linguee provides.
Along with the translation, it also displays more information about the translation such as Wikipedia definitions and other external sources from the internet.

5. Google Translate
This is a translation tool that requires no introduction. It is a quick and fairly efficient translation tool powered by Google. It supports text, audio, picture, and website translation.
However, the translations provided by this particular tool are not always very accurate and it can be difficult to achieve the specific outcome that you are aiming for.
It is completely free and can be used for small translations. For example, if you are visiting a different country, consider Mexico. And you don’t know how to communicate in Spanish.
You can set the translation to English to Spanish and speak into the microphone. Google will translate it for you and the translation is delivered to the other person in audio. This works the other way around as well.
It is not recommended to use this tool in professional settings as the results might be a little underwhelming.
