Disclosed herein are a method and apparatus for pairing terminals using a sound wave. A sound wave is transmitted from a first terminal to a second terminal and a response is sent by the second terminal and detected by the first terminal. The first terminal and the second terminal are paired based at least partially on the sound wave signal and the response signal.

Pairing terminals with a sound wave signal

Disclosed are a method of recognizing a translation situation and performing a translation function, and an electronic device implementing the same. The electronic device recognizes a situation involving translation and automatically performs a translation function, thereby improving user convenience. An electronic device includes an audio module configured to receive and output audio signal, and a processor. A language translation program is executed in response to detecting that an audio signal received through the audio module includes at least a first language and a second language, a portion of the audio signal that is in the second language is translated into the first language, and the translated portion is outputted through the audio module.
