The Human Languge Compiler works <b>completely off-line</b>, without

internet connection, although being on-line may give you better

internet connection, when doing text-based translation.
|

Even speech works off-line in some languages,

but being on-line may give you better

speech input and output.

The app is small (around 23 MB for all languages).

You can also install third-party off-line speech engines, such as SVOX.
