is there a translator with the ease of use of babelfish which doesn't produce, well, babel?

Question

your answer gave me a translator that spat out the exact nonsense that babelfish did.

Answer 1

Online translators are generally inaccurate if you're using highly idiomatic or technical language. You might try posting whetever is it you need translated to see if anyone can translate it for you. Make sure you mention what language it is in your question and tell people you need native speakers, NOT an online translator ;-)

Answer 2

Besides the bable you reference, this is a good site for easy translation and lots of languages.
