Scratch CodeAlong: Build A Language Translator – Recap

This is a recap for you and your class to follow along to that will show you how to create a multi-language translator tool in Scratch! Based on the activity done as part of the code along during AI in Schools Week 2025.

The video takes you through how to build the program that asks the user to enter a word or phrase in English and it will translate it into a language of your choice.  It will also speak the translation back to you!

We will then expand it so it can deal with many languages!
