Why Korean Machine Translation is TERRIBLE | Google vs. Bing vs. Naver
There are several web sites that you can use for free to instantly translate to and from Korean. The top 3 are currently Google Translate, Bing Translate, and Naver Translate (also known as Papago Translate).
I’ve had a lot of people ask me which is the best to use, and I’ve always responded with “none of them.” But if I’m going to give a proper reason, I figured I should make a video to explain why.
If you need to translate something that’s important, avoid machine translation wherever possible. Find out in this video why it might be a bad idea to use any of them, and learn about the problems with current machine translation.
I’ve compared Google Translate, Bing Translator and Naver Papago for translation between English and Korean. I find that Naver Papago is far superior to Google and Bing. However, I’ve also compared it against “kakao i translate” (https://translate.kakao.com/) and though it says it is still in beta version, it seems to be just as good as Naver…. Just my two cents – Steven (stevenbammel.com)
I agree. Naver Papago is definitely the best of those options. I hope in another 10 years though we can still get something much better.
