    There are many ways. You'll need to describe in more detail what the question is.

    For instance, do the entire file in Spanish. Then make a copy of the file, and replace the Spanish text with your Portuguese translation.

    Of course, the files will not be synchronized like this, but you haven't stated that you need them synced.

    Alternatively, use InDesign's "conditional text" feature. That way, everything remains in a single file.

    So, a few more details would help to give a more focused answer.

    Only well-trained humans can translate a text and do it well.

    cinziamorotta's response will identify the language for sure but InDesign can't convert the text to a different language if that's what you're asking.

    that is my point. So i go to do text by text, right?
