Automatic translators
Some of you have been translating the text about "Brand Wars" (check it out on our Wiki).Most of you said that the automatic translator wasn't very helpful as the translation of the text to Portuguese either didn't make sense or looked comic! Let me tell you that each semester I get some very funny translations from students who used an automatic translator for their work. Then they are suprised when I give their work a low mark!
However, IF you are smart and use the translator strategically, at the same time as your brain, your imagination, the dictionary and your language knowledge, then it can be one more tool to help you to make sense of a text.
Here are two translaters from Altavista's Babelfish and from Google's language tools. I'll put these links in the sidebar.
