Multilingual Translator1.7

Multilingual Translator is a software application that can translate words or text to and from multiple languages straight from your desktop.While Google Translate is most likely the number one utility when it comes to translation services, Multilingual Translator could also come in handy because it offers powerful features directly on the desktop, eliminating the need of a browser.Just like Google Translate, Multilingual Translator needs an active Internet connection, because the whole translation takes place online, while users see only the translated text.The interface may scare away a user or two, mostly because the main window also displays advertisements, resulting in a rather unprofessional appearance.The application supports multiple languages (not so many as Google Translate), but the most popular ones are included, such as English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, Korean and Japanese.Besides the main translation utility, the program also allows you to save the translated text or print it straight from the main window.Everything's pretty straightforward and easy to use, so it's no wonder there's no help file included in the package. Beginners should have absolutely no problem figuring out the usageOverall, Multilingual Translator is a handy utility, but there are similar applications out there doing the same thing with a much more appealing interface and well-developed features. It needs a major facelift and some new features, as well as more supported languages.
