Since I’m usually averse to Internet translations, I’ve been somewhat reluctant to mention a tool called Traduku<\/a>. If you’ve ever had experience with Babelfish<\/a>, it functions much like the (in)famous web translator. Insert some text, or a URL, into the appropriate field, click a button for the desired language, and check the results. The page where it translates for you has a neat feature where you can run your mouse over the given text for a list of synonyms or other possible translations.<\/p>\n

After playing with a few sentences, I’m not entirely disappointed with Traduku. Like all translation tools, however, I strongly caution you to proofread what it gives you…Who knows what its algorithm might be giving you! Here are a few sample translations of sentences I tried, so you can judge for yourself. Of course, a firsthand check might be the best course of action!<\/p>\n

“I doubt that this works.” – “Mi dubas ke \u0109i tiu labor<\/strong>.” (Probably should be “laboras<\/strong>,” or “laborus<\/strong>.”)
