Translating Italian to English — What to Expect
Italian is one of the cleanest languages to extract — a small alphabet, light diacritics, regular spelling — so this pair performs well even on mediocre scans. The errors that do occur come from dropped accents on short function words, where è read as e turns "is" into "and" and quietly changes the sentence. Italian menus and food terminology translate literally rather than idiomatically, so regional dish names may come through as descriptions of their parts rather than recognisable names.

Italian to English — Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is Italian to English?▼
Very good for printed text. Italian extracts cleanly thanks to its regular spelling and light diacritic load, and the pair is well supported in translation.
What's the most common error?▼
A dropped accent on a short word. The difference between è (is) and e (and) is one small mark, and losing it changes the sentence in a way that still reads as grammatical English.
Does it translate Italian menus well?▼
Ingredients and preparation methods translate accurately. Regional dish names often come through literally rather than as recognised names, so a speciality may read as a list of components.
