The Babel Fish Translation tool uses machine translation technology to translate sentences in one language into another language. Babel Fish can translate either text or full web pages from the internet.
Machine translation is a computer program which automatically analyzes the meaning of a sentence and attempts to produce a sentence in a different language which conveys the same meaning. No computer program can translate correctly 100% of the time, but machine translation is useful to get the basic ideas of a sentence.
Babel Fish support many popular languages like Spanish, french, Latin, Dutch, German, Greek, Italian and a lot more.
