How to use the document translation feature in Excel
Step 1:
You highlight the content you want to translate in Excel, then click on the Review tab above, then look down below and click on the Translate tool to perform language translation.
Step 2:
On the right edge of the Excel interface you will see a language translation column. The From section is the language that Excel has recognized, or you can also choose the language manually. If you set Auto-detect, the tool will automatically detect the language entered by Excel's default.
In the To section, we choose the language we want to translate into.
Immediately after that, users will see the translated content from the original in Excel in the To section. Users can highlight the content in the To section to use for data tables in Excel.
Currently, the language translation feature in Excel is being used for Office 2019 and later versions.
