Talk Bable fish!

Bable Fish is a lot of fun to mess around with

Original
Your face looks like a monkey that has been run over by a 10 ton truck

After English To Spanish
Su cara parece un mono que ha sido ejecutado encima por un carro de 10 toneladas


After Spanish To English:
Its face seems a monkey that has been executed above by a car of 10 tons

Are their any really good translation programs out thier?

When I first saw the topic "Bable fish" I thought you were quoting the Late Douglas Adams, and his great Story / books / Radio broadcast "The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy" of which I found an 8 cd re-release of the original radio show whilst I was traveling in Australia in Feb this year.

The translator will not produce a perfect translation. In most cases it should adequately convey the general sense of the original; however, it is not a substitute for a competent human translator.
A competant human translator..... I needed a frech translator...
