German translator

Teutonic language intermediary

A German translator converts text or speech between German and another language—typically into or from the translator's native tongue.

The term may describe a professional who translates documents, literature, or technical materials, or simply someone performing the act of translation.

It also refers to software or online tools that automate the process: I ran the email through a German translator.
