Google Translate could soon be able to explain its translations better

Looks like Google Translate is adding an 'Ask a question' feature.

Interestingly, as spotted by Android Authority, the app is gearing up for a new feature that’ll add more context to translations, helping users better understand the subtleties behind the words. There’s not much info on how it’ll work yet, but Android Authority guesses the "Ask a question" button could use AI to give users more context and a better grasp of their translations. Words can mean different things depending on context, so having extra details helps avoid confusing or awkward translations.
