Translate English to German with Sie or du chosen for you by the tone setting, and a glossary to keep compound technical terms consistent.

Machine translation can be wrong, especially for legal, medical and official documents. Use it to draft and understand; have a qualified translator review anything with real consequences.

What to watch between English and German

Sie or du

Formal German uses Sie (capitalised); informal uses du. Many German tech and consumer brands address customers with du, while banks, insurers and public bodies use Sie. Choose deliberately and the whole text follows.

Compound nouns

German builds long compounds (Kundenzufriedenheitsumfrage = customer satisfaction survey). If your team uses a particular compound, lock it in the glossary.

Text expansion

German translations commonly run longer than the English source. Leave room in buttons, slides and layouts.

Going the other way? Use the German to English translator.

Formal or casual?

English Could you send me the report by Friday?

Könnten Sie mir den Bericht bis Freitag schicken?

English to German: questions

Does it use Swiss or Austrian German?

It writes standard German. For Swiss German conventions (no ß, "ss" instead), add a glossary note or edit the output.

Can I translate technical manuals?

Yes, choose the Technical domain so code, units and product names stay unchanged. Safety-critical instructions should still be reviewed by a qualified translator.

Is there a word limit?

Each request takes up to 5,000 characters. Split longer documents; the glossary keeps terms stable across sections.
