Hi, I´m new here. I am already enjoying the daily Shakespeare sonnets. :rolleyes:
I´m German; I studied English/American literature and musicology in Heidelberg - but that´s about ten years ago! I´m now working in the marketing department of a big scientific publishing house. This is not my dream job, but I try do make the best out of it - browsing this forum ;)
So this is my first question now:
Has anybody got a good link to translation tools on the web?
I mean, I´m looking for a site where I can write down a word and it gives me a (good!) equivalent in German or English/American/Slang.
Is there a good site for phrases and idioms?
At the moment I use the tools from <google.de> and <altavista.com> (Babelfish), which give only basic translations.
