How to add translation to Word

Translate text in a different language

You can translate text written in a different language, such as phrases or paragraphs, individual words 
(by using theMini Translator), or translate your whole file with Microsoft Office. To translate text into some languages, you might also have to satisfy certain operating system requirements for them –right-to-left
 languages need specific support, for example.
NOTE:  The Translate command is only available in the following Microsoft Office programs: Word, Outlook, 
OneNote, PowerPoint, Publisher, Excel and Visio.
You can also create a document in one language, and then use a machine translation service to translate it
 to a different language. For more information, see the Translate a whole file section.

What do you want to do?

Translate a whole file

You can have a whole file translated by a computer and displayed in a web browser. When you choose this 
kind of translation, the content in your file is sent over the internet to a service provider.
NOTE:  Machine translation is helpful for conveying the basic subject matter of the content and for 
confirming whether the content is relevant to you. For important or sensitive files, human translation is recommended, because machine translation might not preserve the full meaning and tone of the text.
  1. In the file that you want translated, click Review, in the Language group, click Translate.
  2. Click Choose Translation Language.
  3. Under Choose document translation languages click the Translate from and Translate to languages that you want, and then click OK.
  4. Click Review, in the Language group, click Translate.
  5. Click Translate Document. The From and To languages that you selected are listed.
A browser instance opens with your file in both the original language and translated into the language
 that you selected.
NOTE:  If this is the first time you have used translation services, click OK to install the bilingual dictionaries
 and enable the translation service through the Research pane. You can also see which bilingual dictionaries and machine translation services you have enabled by clicking the Translation options link in the Research pane.
