Just found a button on my IE page called 'translate' select a site in another language press the translate button and it appears in English, magic or has everyone got one and I'm a bit slow? It's ideal for the dutch S-100 site.

Hi there. A little tip on translate. Translate what you want to saw in to the new language then translate that back in to English. If it makes sense then you can use it.I found most of these site cant get a round the grammar  so what you get is pigeon English at best.

Tried out a English to Russian translator once.

Input the phrase 'Out of sight, out of mind'

Translated to Russian and then back to English.

What was the result:-  'Blind idiot'
