Writing & sending · Basic · 3 min

Understanding an email in another language and replying

One button to read it in your language, one sentence to answer in theirs.

In short

With the email open, press “Translate” in the bar below: the text switches to your language and you can go back to the original whenever you want. To answer, tell the assistant “reply in Spanish” (or whichever language) and it writes the reply straight in that language.

Step by step

  1. Open the email

    Even if you cannot read a word of it, open it as usual.

Does translating change the original email?

No. The message on the server stays exactly as it was; only what you see changes.
