2 Built-In Language Translations

In the past, Facebook relied on a third-party service — Microsoft Bing — for language translations. But now, the company will implement first-party translation engine for at least one platform: Marketplace, Facebook’s e-commerce system for user buying and selling.

It’s called M Translations, and it’ll work pretty simply. If you receive a message on Marketplace in a language you don’t speak, Facebook will ask you if you’d like that message translated. At launch, it’ll support Spanish and English. And though it’s rolling out for Marketplace messages initially, Facebook said it’ll eventually expand to all Messenger users (presumably, with additional supported languages added in later on).
