Ravel, willkommen und ist zutreffend!
Used babelfish for that and I really really REALLY don't think that is an accurate translation!
Steadfast, maybe, instead of zutreffend? Also, forgotten my imperative case! But I'm sure it's not 'ist' is it?
Ravel, willkommen und harren Sie aus steadfast!

I made some experiences (normal sentences and some of TOT english-german).Matrixman wrote:That babelfish program looks excellent, Luci! But how accurate is it? Can I trust it not to make me look like an idiot? (Because I'm quite capable of idiocy on my own.)
I had a lot to laugh
simple sentences are translated nearly accurate (if you have some fantasy to interprete), but everything which was a lot more than a few words, ended in non-intelligible phrases.
Therefore, you can use babelfish cautiously, but I think, if anybody has a few experience with german, he(she) does better to translate himself (or herself
).It can´t be worse, than a lot of these translations I do here, for example
(and you accept it nevertheless)Every human makes mistakes. The trick is to do them, when nobody is watching (P. Ustinov)

My spanish tutor said she would kill us if we ever used Babelfish as it's crap.
