# Translation - Supported Languages

## Overview

Reveal offers robust language handling capabilities across multiple features. This article outlines the supported language functionalities, including extraction, identification, translation, and transcription.

## Language Support Features

The language handling solution of Reveal consists of six main features:

1. Extraction of Electronic Text
2. Extraction of OCR Text
3. Language Identification
4. Language Translation
5. Transcription
6. User Interface Translation

### Extraction of Electronic Text

Extraction of electronic text to UTF-8 Unicode is an automated step during processing within the Reveal platform.

### Extraction of OCR Text

Reveal Processing supports over [***120+ different languages***](/reveal/docs/supported-languages-for-ocr)during the OCR process. The OCR process can handle multiple languages within a single document in one pass (e.g., Chinese, Japanese, and Korean). So if a scanned document has Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, Reveal OCR will extract all 3 languages on a single OCR pass. Extraction of OCR text to UTF-8 Unicode is an automated step during processing within the Reveal platform.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Review OCR **only supports English**. However, you can OCR other languages in Processing. For a full list of supported languages, refer to****[**Appendix I - Supported Languages for OCR**](/reveal/docs/supported-languages-for-ocr). This limitation does not affect the translation of native files and native file extractions.

### Language Identification

Reveal supports [**150+ different languages**](/reveal/docs/supported-languages-for-language-detection)for language identification. This process uses a **neural network AI n-gram approach** to identify the **top 3 languages** and their respective percentage within the entire extracted and/or OCR text in a file. Language identification is an automated step in processing.

### Language Translation

Reveal supports [**75+ different languages**](/reveal/docs/translation-supported-languages#supported-languages-for-translation) for translation. This process uses an AI-driven approach that translates text from one language to another. **Translation requires manual input** by an Admin after files are loaded to Review. Users can leverage the languages and their percentages from **language identification** to execute the translation. Translation helps prioritize files but does not replace the need for native language review by reviewers. It is an additional functionality that allows admins and/or review managers to search for potentially relevant material in their native language and then prioritize the file for a reviewer fluent in the file's original language.

### Transcription

Reveal supports [**30+ different languages**](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transcribe/latest/dg/supported-languages.html) for transcription (converting speech to text). This process uses an AI-driven approach that transcribes spoken content into text. **Admin input is required** to input language transcription after loading files into Review. Users can leverage the languages identification results to assist with transcription.

### User Interface Translation

Reveal supports **100+ languages** for translating the user interface. Users can select their preferred language in settings.
