• receiving a plurality of chat messages sent by at least a subset of the plurality of participants;
• determining one or more conversational contexts between two or more participants of the group communication session;
• determining, based on at least one of the conversational contexts, at least one target language for translation;
• and
• upon receiving each of the initial chat messages:
• determining a source language for the initial chat message;
• determining whether there is a match between the source language for the initial chat message and the at least one target language;
• if there is no match, translating, in real-time, the initial chat message into the at least one target language;
• and
• displaying, at the client device, the translated chat message within the display section of the UI.

• instructions for receiving a plurality of chat messages sent by at least a subset of the plurality of participants;
• instructions for determining one or more conversational contexts between two or more participants of the group communication session;
• instructions for determining, based on at least one of the conversational contexts, at least one target language for translation;
• and
• instructions for, upon receiving each of the initial chat messages:
• determining a source language for the initial chat message;
• determining whether there is a match between the source language for the initial chat message and the at least one target language;
• if there is no match, translating, in real-time, the initial chat message into the at least one target language;
• and
• displaying, at the client device, the translated chat message within the display section of the UI.
