IMDb Pages Now Available in Your Preferred Language!

IMDb Pages Now Available in Your Preferred Language!


English | Français | Deutsch | हिंदी | Italiano | Português | Español

 

We're thrilled to announce a new feature that will make IMDb more enjoyable for our global audience!

 

What's New?

We've introduced machine translations for IMDb pages, allowing you to experience more content in your preferred language. This enhancement means that additional sections of IMDb pages will gradually become available in the language you've selected.

 

This feature currently supports the following languages:


  • French (Canada)

  • French (France)

  • German

  • Hindi

  • Italian

  • Portuguese (Brazil)

  • Spanish (Mexico)

  • Spanish (Spain)


Some of the information you that you see in your preferred language may rely on machine translations. These will be prefaced with this symbol:



How It Works

Once you've set your preferred language in your account settings, you'll begin to see more IMDb content displayed in that language. We're rolling this out gradually, so you'll notice more machine translations appearing over time.


Whether you're browsing movie details, reading plot summaries, or exploring celebrity pages, you'll now have a richer experience in the language that's most comfortable for you.

 

You can find more information on our Help guide.

 

As with any new feature, we're eager to hear your thoughts! Please share your experience with the translation feature on this thread and let us know how we can continue to improve your IMDb experience.

Hi ! I have sent a message to the IMDb "Feedback" mail address and eventually got neither a real answer, nor a hope for some solutions, but rather what appears to be a robotic automated mail. It suggested that I should submit my query to this board. So thanks in advance for any observations, comments or feedback from community users ! Here is the mail I sent yesterday : "Hi, I am a french user and I just want to let you know that the french translations of the trivia items are totally incorrect and unreadable. Obviously they are made by an AI system, and they are full of grammar mistakes, syntax errors and spelling faults that turn each sentence into a beyond understanding gibberish.This is a recent issue, for I have been an IMDb user for 26 years, and I never saw any of these catastrophic problems before this year.I hope IMDb won't go on making fun of itself with these laughable (?) translations which are really unreliable and untrustworthy.And above all, discreditable for this awesome website. Sorry to be a bit harsh, but I am shocked.With my deepest regards" Note: This comment was created from a merged conversation Link : https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/imdbcom/trivia-french-translations/69dcad3ef456cd179ebd2129 Title : Trivia french translations

Hi @Jump,

Thanks for writing in, and for 26 years with IMDb.

We recently rolled out machine translations on IMDb pages, including Trivia. When content is machine translated, a small icon appears with the text. Are you seeing a translation icon on the trivia items you mentioned? That will help us confirm it's a machine translation issue.

Could you also share a couple of examples of where you noticed the problem? We'll pass your feedback along to the team.

If the content is machine translated, you can turn off "Show machine translated content where available" in your account settings. That will disable the machine translation feature.

We appreciate you flagging this.

Thank you so much for your quick answer. As you requested, you may find some examples at the end of this message.

I was not aware of the disabling feature in my account settings, I think I shall use it from now. I can read easily in english, and also my eyes won't be stung again...Haha ;-P Have a nice day!
