In our daily lives we often come across phrases or sentences in a language that is not our own. Unfortunately most English speakers only speak English and so when we come across a word, phrase or sentence that we don't understand we just insert it into an internet search engine and hope for a translation.
If all you are looking for is a single word to be translated then maybe these translation websites can help you. But in the real world a single word won't really get you anywhere and so you need to be able to understand more than just a single foreign word.
In this situation a computer or an internet search engine really is not going to help you, you need professional translations. If you can do some level of translation there are English schools that will offer you the opportunity to learn English cheaply by translating texts as part of your English course. Each language has its own grammatical structure as well as its own rhythm and a computer simply cannot accurately capture the nuance of a language. (more...)
