1. Play your bagpipes late at night. They'll throw you out soon enough.

2. Well, the Babel Fish at Alta Vista is and actually more or less works. Very, very interesting results on folk song, (!) but works pretty ok. It will auto translate a web page if you make it a button on the browser or else you can paste text in to it. Tool page at http://doc.altavista.com/help/search/babel_tool.shtml

My wife, who is Bavarian, travels a lot and I send her faxes daily when she is away. One sure fire amusement is for me to take my ordinary daily jottings and run them through Babelfish to turn it into German. She usually thinks it is just so cute, "it sounds just like a foreigner". However, the meaning does come through.

If you are serious about using a translator program for communicating, I would suggest keeping the vocabulary and the sentence structure simple and *keep away from idioms*.

Abby Sale, I followed your link to Babelfish, but I didn't find any way to make it translate something.

Leenia, once at the site that link takes you click on the link for Babelfish. It takes you to the same spot the Mudcat "Translate" button takes you.

There once was a farmer and he sent his son
Into the mountains with a horse to graze
The boy fell asleep, when he awoke the horse had gone
He came home alone and all the neighbours said
"What bad luck," but the farmer said
"How do you know, how do you know?"

The very next day the farmer sent his son
Into the mountains to try and find the runaway
The boy found the horse and seven other wild ones
And he brought them home and all the neighbours said
"What good luck," but the farmer said
"How do you know, how do you know?

(Tucker Zimmerman)

But what (if anything) has somebody called "Baby Noah Raphael" got to do with anything?
OK, right. "How do you know, how do you know?"

Never use bablefish and the like! These bloody machines don't know languages, but can only translate word for word, and with homonymes they always choose the wrong one.

e.g. (babelfish):
engl.: Oh say can you see in the dawn's early light
germ.:OH- Sagen kann Sie in das dawn's frühe Licht sehen
back to engl.: OH- legends can see you into the dawn's early light

There was a farmer and sent his son
To the mountains to the horse scraped
The boy fell asleep and when he woke up
The horse went home alone, and all the neighbors said,
"What is unfortunate," but he said the farms
"How you know, how will I know? "

In the next day farmer sent his son
To the mountains to try to escape
And find the boy found horse and seven others from the wild
And brought them to their homes is all the neighbors,
"What Fortunately," but he said the farms
"How you know, how will I know?

It did a good job on "I don't know the address of the hotel."

'Ich kenne nicht die Adresse des Hotels."

I think if I were lost in Germany, it would prove helpful. it helps that I've studied German in school.
