A simple three-step flow
This live Portuguese–English page starts with Portuguese (Portugal) and English (United States), not Portuguese (Brazil). A Portugal wording such as comboio, or a place such as Porto, belongs to this default. Speakers take turns in one session, and the columns stay fixed so you can check the original caption before you travel or confirm a time.
The page opens on Portuguese (Portugal), pt-PT. Portuguese (Brazil), pt-BR, is a different catalog entry from the 8 October 2026 list. Select Brazil before Start only if that is the variety you want. The page will not switch for you.
Press Start translating and allow the microphone. Wait for Listening. Ask about one train, time, or place. Loading the page does not start a session.
Compare the Portuguese line with the English one. If you expected a Brazilian term, check whether pt-PT is still selected.
Words on screen
Read Portuguese (Portugal) speech beside its translation, then let the other speaker answer in English (United States) if they prefer. The text stays grouped by the two selected languages, so check the original wording when a place, name, or number matters.
Captions are text only, and either selected language can be spoken in the same session. The examples on this page are written to illustrate the languages; they are not captions captured from a live session.
With live captions, both people can follow each turn and respond while the conversation is underway. Use the two language columns to check names, numbers, and places together.
Portuguese (Portugal)
O comboio para o Porto sai às nove.
English (United States)
The train to Porto leaves at nine.
Language selections
This page starts with Portuguese (Portugal) and English (United States). Speakers can take turns in either selected language during one session. The language columns stay fixed, and the Web trial is up to one cumulative minute per visitor.
| Setting | How it works |
|---|---|
| First language | Start with Portuguese (Portugal). |
| Second language | Use English (United States) as the second language; both remain visible in separate caption columns. |
| Conversation direction | Either selected language can be spoken in the same session; its translation appears in the other language’s column. |
The default is Portuguese (Portugal), pt-PT. Portuguese (Brazil), pt-BR, was a separate entry in the catalog collected on 8 October 2026. This page does not rewrite Portugal vocabulary into Brazilian vocabulary or the reverse. The example uses comboio and Porto as an edited Portugal illustration. Confirm times and place names in the original caption.
Short, practical exchanges
Use one destination and one time. Comboio is the Portugal wording in the edited example; do not treat this default as Brazilian Portuguese.
Read Porto, or whichever place was spoken, in the Portuguese caption before you follow the English line.
Repeat the hour alone if the first caption also contains a place. Either person can answer in the other selected language.
Practical tips
Check this site’s microphone permission and your system input device, then return to the tool and start again. If another application is using the microphone, close that recording session first.
No. The browser voice translator shows recognized speech and translations as text captions only; it does not play translated speech.
Wait for the status to recover before speaking. If the session ends, check your connection and press Start again. A reconnect does not guarantee that speech from the interruption can be recovered.
