Muama Enence Translator Review 2019: Languages at Your Fingertips

 

I, like so many others on this green Earth of ours, love to travel. In fact, I try to visit at least two foreign countries a year. If I’m not mistaken, my record was seven, and that was during my ‘Central European Tour’ that included Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Czechia, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Poland. Of course, I speak several languages, but even I have some difficulties when visiting countries like South Korea or Vietnam. When I travel to countries with unfamiliar languages, I always find its best to bring a translator device  Since I started using Muama Enence, though, my trips got far better and easier than before.

I’ll delve into my personal experience with Muama Enence shortly, but first I should tell you what it is and how it works

 

Muama Enence is a portable translator device . As its name suggests, tourists and travelers use it when they don’t speak a language but need to translate something on the spot.

Before purchasing an insant translation device, there are many types to choose from. Most models, like the Muama Enence, works with an internet connection. This is a great choice if you can connect through WiFi wherever you go.

Then there are devices that only work one way, i.e., they only translate one language to another. If I were to buy one of these translation devices, I would have to change the input languages so that my interlocutor can answer my questions. That takes too long. Luckily, Muama Enence is a two-way translation device, so I don’t have any of those problems.

Most of these devices are of similar size. Enence, for example, fits into the palm of my hand. There are others out there that are even smaller than that. In addition to size, most of the translators have a similar shape and design, too. They all remind me of MP3 players from roughly a decade ago. That kind of gives them a neo-retro look, which I love.

But let’s get into specifics, shall we?

While I was in South Korea, I didn’t go anywhere past Seoul. Honestly, I was only going to spend a couple of days there, so I figured ‘the capital is enough.’

While in Seoul, I wanted to do what every red-blooded American does — find the nearest McDonald’s and try their own version of the Big Mac. Interestingly, Korean Big Mac is cheaper than its US counterpart. But the problem was finding the McDonald’s from the hotel I was staying at. That was the first time I was in Seoul, and it’s not exactly a small town. So naturally, I decided to ask around for directions.

It might sound like a stereotype, but the vast majority of Pacific Asian people don’t speak English well. Granted, it’s not as dire as it is in other parts of the world , but it’s still a problem for us English speakers. That’s why I bought the Muama instant translator beforehand. I had some extra money, so I decided to test it.

Most of the Koreans I spoke to were shocked, but pleasantly so. They were giggling and were so excited over this small device that, at one point, we ended up talking into it for almost twenty minutes.

Perhaps they found it so fascinating because it’s really simple to use. There are only two buttons — button A and button B. To say something to them, I had to press button A and talk. Once I released the button, the little gadget translated my sentences on the spot! Then, when they wanted to reply, I’d hold button B and let them talk.

Most of the time, it worked perfectly. Of course, it did have a few hiccups with longer sentences, but overall, the South Korean test was a success.

I lumped these two together because both countries use the same language, Malay.

Now, Malay wasn’t as fluent as Korean, but the device still worked well. I was staying at a hotel in Malacca City, and since it’s on the coast overlooking Sumatra, there were many Indonesians there as well. I was using the translator to ask about common stuff, like ‘Where’s the market?’ and ‘Any cheap restaurants here?’ There were literally zero problems.

Speaking of Sumatra, I actually took a guided bus tour of the island. That gave me a chance to talk to the local tourists, i.e., tourists from other parts of Indonesia. The translator had some minor issues when my interlocutors had a thick accent, but otherwise, it worked like a charm.


My last real test was in the city of Palembang in South Sumatra. I visited several fancy restaurants that served traditional Palembang cuisine (side note: it’s friggin’ amazing! I highly recommend it to everyone, you included). Nearly everything I ordered, I did it using the translator, and it worked every time. A few waiters even asked me where they could buy one.

Singapore was my final destination, and I couldn’t wait to see how Muama Enence would do there.

Now, most people in Singapore already speak English. However, I wanted to test how the device would translate into Chinese. Sadly, I had no time to visit China that year, so Singapore was my best option. In addition, I could test Malay some more, but with a different dialect.

Unsurprisingly, Singaporeans also loved my little translator. It offers several different variants of the Chinese language (I will list them a little later), and I found this to be the best feature.

Namely, not every Chinese speaker in Singapore is a native. More than a few are tourists, expatriates, or simply work abroad. I was especially glad to meet a person from Sichuan province. It gave my Muama Enence a chance to prove that it could actually translate into the Sichuan Chinese dialect, as advertised.

If I had to list any flaws, it would be that not every translation comes out perfectly. I ran into situations where a simple sentence was translated weirdly, and it made both me and my interlocutor laugh. If you’re planning to use it with a person who has a thick accent or who mumbles, it might not work as well as it normally does.

 
Most of the Muama translator reviews out there sing praises to the device. After I tested it myself, I can fully understand why. But there’s the important question of the Muama translator price range.

If you’re interested in buying a Muama translator, you will get a 50% discount as well as free shipping on all orders. Oh, and if you buy three Enence translators,you will get two absolutely free of charge.
