# Translator API

The translation API allows you to rewrite some text in a different language

{% hint style="success" %}
This API is compatible with the [Translation API proposal](https://github.com/WICG/translation-api) shipping with Google Chrome
{% endhint %}

Use the translation API to translate a block of text

```javascript
import AI from '@aibrow/web'

const translator = await AI.AIBrow.Translator.create({
  sourceLanguage: 'en',
  targetLanguage: 'es'
});

// Prompt the model and wait for the whole result to come back.
const result = await translator.translate("If you don't build your dream, someone else will hire you to help them build theirs.");
console.log(result);

// Prompt the model and stream the result:
const stream = await translator.translateStreaming("If you don't build your dream, someone else will hire you to help them build theirs.");
for await (const chunk of stream) {
  console.log(chunk);
}
```
