A Free Web Excel Translate Tool
Do you work in an international environment where your colleagues have Excel installed in different versions and languages?
Or perhaps – like in my case – you moved from a different country and now you need to relearn how to use Excel and its formulas, however it’s all in English this time. A Google Translate for Excel could be quite handy at these times!
In this post I’d like to share about the Excel Translator, the free web Google Translate for Excel tool that has helped me BIG TIME since I moved from Brazil to Germany in 2018 for a job.
Alternatively for Microsoft 365, Excel 2019 or Excel 2016, you can also try installing Microsoft’s free Excel Functions Translator add-in.
“Just use a VLOOKUP formula”
“You can use the IF formula to do this…”
But this doesn’t work for me, my Excel is in German!!!!
It’s very handy to have this under your sleeve!
I am much more familiar now with working in Excel in English than in any other language. But I still find myself sometimes at situations where, for instance, I need to demonstrate some Excel Hacks, tricks and tips to someone that has their Excel installed in German.
I want to be able to solve these kind of issues at anytime without a hassle, therefore the Excel Translator works perfectly for me!
How to use the Google Translate for Excel
Learn how to use the FREE Web Excel Translator tool by following the 3 steps below:
- Go to https://en.excel-translator.de/translator/
- Select your Excel’s version, Source Formula which you’d like to translate, Source Language and Target Language
Here you can also enter a more detailed formula to automatically translate the entire formula.
For instance: IF(C4=3,”YES”,”NO”) - Hit the Translate button
The formula will appear in the desired language in the Target formula field
Now instead of advising someone with the Excel in German to use the IF formula, I can tell them to use the WENN formula!
