Cultural variation is one of the predominant barriers of communication which majorly occurs due to the difficulty in decoding the language, one is not familiar with. In such scenario, being bilingual or multilingual is a blessing which paves the way for enormous career opportunities and communication across the world. The language barrier is easily eradicated by innovative AI-based translation technologies like Google Translate. On a wide scale, such innovations have made significant progress in helping second language and foreign language learners. Google Translate initially supported only a few languages, but by 2016, it supported 103 languages at different levels, with over 500 million total users and over 100 billion words translated daily [26]. Since this translation service is so easily and widely accessible, second language learners are using it to enhance their learning beyond the four walls of the classroom. In contrast, Google’s machine translation had been slammed for its accuracy because the translations are based on statistical machine translation rather than grammatical rules. Advanced and revised versions of Google Translate, on the other hand, exhibited higher accuracy [27].
