Translator

Hi!
If you don �t want to use several sites for different tasks, use Google translator.
I use it because it has interesting features:
- translates from many into many languages;
- can be set to detect the language automatically and translate into any language you want;
- can be used to check words spelling;
- you can also provide better translations from your language into English or vice-versa (improving the tool);
- most of words and expressions when translated into English show a sound icon. If you press it, you �ll listen to a native speaking it.
- I advise my students to use it whenever they want a translation or pronunciation example (better than interrupting a class to ask something not related to it) - of course I give explanation, but never a translation.
To see and find more features:
