DeepL Expands Neural Machine Translation Coverage with 13 New European Languages
Cologne-based AI company DeepL has expanded its neural machine translation platform by adding 13 additional European Union languages, bringing its total coverage to 24 languages and significantly broadening MTPE options for European translation workflows.
Expanding High-Fluency Neural MT Across Central, Eastern, and Northern Europe
In March 2021, DeepL announced a major expansion of its neural machine translation network with the addition of 13 European languages: Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, Estonian, Finnish, Greek, Hungarian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, and Swedish. Previously renowned for its high-idiomatic fluency across major Western European pairs (such as English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Dutch, and Portuguese) as well as Japanese and Chinese, this release brings DeepL’s coverage to 24 languages, covering the vast majority of official European Union languages.

Impact on CAT Tool Integration and Post-Editing Productivity
For professional translators and Language Service Providers operating within SDL Trados Studio, MemoQ, and Memsource/Phrase via API plugins, the availability of high-performing neural engines for morphologically rich Finno-Ugric, Baltic, and Slavic languages marks a substantial productivity milestone. In blind comparative evaluations conducted by professional linguists, neural architectures tailored for idiomatic context reduce syntactic restructuring effort during Machine Translation Post-Editing (MTPE), allowing human revisers to focus on domain terminology, stylistic nuance, and factual verification.
Executive Takeaways for Global Enterprises
- Key Insight: DeepL added 13 European languages in March 2021, expanding its neural network to 24 languages in total.
- Key Insight: Morphologically complex languages such as Finnish, Hungarian, Czech, and Greek benefit from context-aware neural attention mechanisms.
- Key Insight: Secure API integration (DeepL Pro) ensures zero data retention on enterprise texts processed within professional CAT tools.
