The problem with online translators is that they give you incorrect words and grammar usage. When I was trying to see how you say yes in French, it gave me ci (yes in spanish), which I know is incorrect cause French is not even related to spanish. And, I speak a bit of German, and if you look up "I kicked the dog," it will give you incorrect grammar. Trust me I know .

Yes in French is Oui I know exactly what you mean, monroe. It only translates each word, not necessarily the whole sentence. So it's extremely grammatically incorrect. Unfortunate. I tried Googling for some French phrases once, but I couldn't find anything useful. It all comes down to it, there's no easy way to figure out a language. Heh.

I usually just use the translator to get a general idea of what's being said. You really can't beat learning the language yourself and knowing the different tenses and such. But this is just a quick fix if you are in a bind.

Exactly, M. I usually use the translator for single words, for the most part. But that's just it, the only way to understand a language is to actually learn it. But I'm still working on english, soo...
