What you can do with the Google Translate Dictionary:

 
Listen to translations

Click the Speaker icon to initiate the voice.
You can listen to the pronunciation of the original word and its translation.

GT-Translator-Dicionary-TTS 

In the Advanced Options you can choose which TTS service to use: ImTranslator TTS or an alternative TTS service.

 
See reverse translations

Next to each dictionary translation, there is a set of reverse translations back to the original language. Click on the reserve translation to change the original word and show its own set of translations with corresponding reverse translations.

Choose correct language

There may be cases when the language detection tool doesn't identify the language of a source word correctly. This may happen to the words of the same language group, or to the loan-words.

GT-Translator-Dictionary-Deteted-Language 

 

If you know the language of a word, select the known language (i.e. English) and lock it by checking the "Lock-in language" checkbox.  This will disable the auto language detection and secure the chosen language.

Use Translation History

Translation History keeps track of all your translation activity and stores translation records in the Translation History.

To add records to the translation history, you need to "Enable translation history" in the Translation History panel.
