9月17日凌晨，蘋果向所有用戶推送了 iOS14 正式版。iOS 14的一大亮點，就是蘋果推出了自帶的翻譯（Translate）應用。那麼，這個自帶的翻譯應用效果怎麼樣呢？我們來看一看。
iOS 14: Apple's Built-In Translate App That Works With 11 Languages
MacRumors
Apple in iOS 14 added a new Translate app, which, as the name suggests, is designed to offer translations from one language to another. The Translate app has some useful features that are handy both when learning a new language and when attempting to talk to someone who speaks a different language.
This guide walks through all of the features in the Translate app and how to use them.
Design
The Translate app has a simple, easy to use interface that allows you to select languages to translate to and from at the top, and options to either type (or paste) text to be translated or speak it aloud after tapping the microphone option.
Translations are shown in large text, with the original phrase in black and the translation shown in blue. The iPhone can speak translations out loud when the play button is tapped so you can get the proper pronunciation or play the translation to someone who speaks a different language.
Languages
The Translate app can translate to and from Arabic, mainland Chinese, English (US and UK), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish.
Voice Translations
With voice translation, you can tap the microphone in the Translate app and speak a phrase out loud to have it translated into the target language. For example, if you have English and Spanish selected as chosen languages and ask "Where's the bathroom?" the app will provide the proper response: "Dónde está el baño?"
You can speak in any of the supported languages and have the spoken language translated into any of the other languages. The Translate app works with simple phrases or long sentences and speeches.
Text Translations
Text translations can be typed into the Translate app, which is useful if you need to paste something from a website or document for a translation. To enter text, just tap on the "Enter text" wording in the app and it opens up into an interface where you can type something or paste it in with a tap.
You can type in a single sentence or paste in long paragraphs of text, with the Translate app able to translate everything in its entirety complete with a spoken translation that can be played so you can hear the pronunciation.
Favorites
Any recent translation can be saved as a favorite through the "Favorites" tab so you can save and repeat your most used translated phrases when needed. The Favorites tab also shows your recent translations.
Dictionary
If you tap on any word in any language in the Translate app, the dictionary feature will provide a definition and usage examples, a feature that's helpful if you don't know what a word means in another language.
On-Device Translations
Translations by default are not done on device but if you download a language pack in the Translate app, translations to and from that language can be done on the iPhone for more privacy.
Translations that use offline languages are on-device and private, with Apple having no access to the content that was translated. Offline languages can be downloaded by tapping on one of the language boxes at the top of the Translate app, scrolling down to "Available Offline Languages" and tapping the download button next to the language you want to download.

蘋果在 iOS 14 中新增了一個翻譯（Translate）應用，顧名思義，該應用旨在提供從一種語言到另一種語言的翻譯。翻譯（Translate）應用有一些實用的功能，無論是在學習新語言時還是在試圖與講不同語言的人交談時都很方便。
1）作名詞，原意表示「特色；特徵；特點」，英文解釋為「something important, interesting or typical of a place or thing」，此前在iOS 14來了!文中就出現了多次的feature，介紹iOS 14各種新功能，新特點，舉個🌰：
Which features do you look for when choosing a car?
你挑選轎車時要著重哪些特點？
2）feature作動詞，表示「以…為特色；由…主演；以…為主要組成」，英文解釋為「to include a particular person or thing as a special feature」，作動詞往往可以理解為「有...」（功能/特色），舉個🌰：
Many of the hotels featured in the brochure offer special deals for weekend breaks.
小冊子列舉的多家旅館都有周末假日特別優待。
The film features Cary Grant as a professor.
這部電影由卡裡·格蘭特飾演一位教授。

Let's just walk through the scene one more time.
我們再排練一次吧。
和此處比較類似的一個說法walk sb. through sth.表示「耐心地給（某人）示範…；詳細地教授（某人）…」，英文解釋為「to slowly and carefully explain something to someone or show someone how to do something」舉個🌰：
She walked me through the document.

◉On-Device Translations
設備端模式
Translations by default are not done on device but if you download a language pack in the Translate app, translations to and from that language can be done on the iPhone for more privacy.

The company is in default on the loan.
這家公司拖欠借款。
People who default on their mortgage repayments may have their home repossessed.
未能按期償還抵押貸款者，其房屋可能會被收回。
3）在網球領域還有一個更專業的術語，叫Default. 可以理解為（被）取消資格；此前，德約科維奇誤傷裁判被直接判負一文中，美網公開賽的官網聲明以及相關新聞報導標題就用的：Three-time champion Novak Djokovic is defaulted in Round of 16 at 2020 US Open.
📍Default: Disqualification of a player in a match by the chair umpire after the player has received four code violation warnings, generally for his/her conduct on court. A double default occurs when both players are disqualified. Defaults also occur when a player misses a match with no valid excuse. Defaults are considered losses.
Translations that use offline languages are on-device and private, with Apple having no access to the content that was translated. Offline languages can be downloaded by tapping on one of the language boxes at the top of the Translate app, scrolling down to "Available Offline Languages" and tapping the download button next to the language you want to download.
使用離線語言的翻譯是在設備端進行的，具有私密性，蘋果無法訪問被翻譯的內容。離線語言可以通過點擊翻譯應用頂部的一個語言框，向下滾動到「可用離線語言」，然後點擊你想要下載的語言旁邊的下載按鈕來下載。
