Translate English to European Portuguese
Portuguese (Portugal) is selected in this translator. Enter your English text and press Translate to request Google’s pt-PT language option. Copy the result, or swap the languages to translate Portuguese into English.
The tool accepts up to 500 characters at a time. It returns text only; it does not generate spoken Portuguese or pronunciation audio.
Why choose Portuguese (Portugal)?
Portuguese used in Portugal and Portuguese used in Brazil share much of their writing system, but everyday vocabulary and forms of address can differ. Selecting Portugal makes the intended regional variant explicit. It does not guarantee that every sentence will use the wording a particular speaker would choose.
For voice and photo translation options on your phone, see our European Portuguese translator guide for iPhone.
Use context for a better starting point
Include the whole sentence, keep names and addresses intact, and review amounts and dates. How you address a friend can differ from how you write to a host, customer, or colleague. A native speaker can help check the tone of a message that matters.
Questions about the Portugal translator

Can I translate European Portuguese to English?
Yes. Swap the languages and enter your Portuguese text. Review the result in context, particularly for informal expressions.
Is the translation free?
Yes. No account is needed for this web tool. You can request up to 10 translations per day, with 500 characters per translation, subject to shared service limits.
