Motors convert electrical energy to mechanical energy. Generators transfer mechanical energy to electrical energy.

Conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy
In an electric motor, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy to produce motion. In a generator, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy by rotating a coil within a magnetic field. Essentially, electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, while generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Generators are similar to motors in that they both involve the conversion of energy, but generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, whereas motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.
Assuming that you're talking about a wind-powered electrical generator (such as a "wind farm"), the energy conversion is from mechanical to electrical. When the wind blows on the blades of the mill it rotates them, creating mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is used to power the electrical generator inside the mill, creating electrical energy out of mechanical energy.
electrical energy>>>>mechanical energy>>>>heat energy
The mechanical energy of a power plant turbine, driven by steam or by water (hydro), is converted to electrical energy
In an electrical motor, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy to produce motion. In a galvanometer, electrical energy is converted into mechanical movement of the pointer in response to the flow of current.
Mechanical energy can be converted into other forms of energy such as thermal, electrical, or sound energy, depending on the system in which the conversion takes place. This conversion occurs due to the work done by the mechanical energy on the objects or materials involved in the process.
