Free Translation
Whether you want free Spanish to English
translation or free online translation of other languages we can point you
in the right direction. This page offers links to the webs most popular computer
translation services. Use these services to get a gist of foreign text and help
decide whether you need to use Live Translation to provide a
professional translation of the original text or your response.
Please remember that free computer aided translations are generally poor quality
and you should never use them for published translations or business communications.
Even personal users will find that a computer translation simply isn't the appropriate
way to communicate with people of different languages. Computer translations are
intended for 'gisting' purposes only.
