Abstract

Online written discussion is a difficult skill for some students because of the need for more vocabulary and the time constraint in expressing their ideas. Thus, this research aims to further the use of Google Translate in EFL online written discussions.

The translation machine was the highest use of Google Translate during the online written discussion activity. On the other hand, the research result showed two Google Translate limitations: the inaccuracy of translation results and inauthentic students’ writing. Despite some drawbacks of Google Translate, the students still consider Google Translate as a helpful tool for supporting them in learning English, particularly in online written discussions.
