translation: German

Hi Joe,
I am not a native speaker, but am quite fluent in German, and I agree with Moni. The translation is very poor, uses incorrect words in context, and can be misleading. I would not use it. It must be done by some computer program and these programs do not seem to do the job. I have heard of kids in school using these programs and now I know why the teachers can always tell.
Too bad the translation doesn't work. It would be a great service to our members who are not fluent in English.
Best regards,
Barbara H.
