Tips & Warnings
Use small pieces of text for the best results.
Translate your text back into English to find out how accurate the translation really is.
The translation that you receive will likely not be exact, since you are using a software program with many variables in the languages. If you are translating a project for school or business, it is best to hire a human translator so you can get an exact translation.
