#116581 - Ever tried Babelfish...?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Or any other 'online' dictionary? Works for me, whenever I've got to translate stuff from 'other' texts (mainly German) for my job. Although I do not (yet) know how well it works for french.

Interesting side note: One major test of my online 'translation' skills - apart from helping me 'read' german technical manuals, came while trying to impress my (now) wife, who is also fluent in danish.

I sent Short Messages to her mobile in Danish (Dansk) with the help of online dictionaries only! The impressive part, was I achieved 98% accuracy on the spelling and grammar, so I got my message across LOUD AND CLEAR! and learnt something at the same time!

Farvel, Held og lykke (Goodbye and good luck!)


Valentin
