CJ Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 OK, so I am a complete technical numpty and still cannot translate pages on Yahoo Japan to English. I have tried Babel Fish and typed in the page URL etc but just get an error all the time. Is there any other software program that folks use that a complete idiot like me would find simple?

terribleturner Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Col i have real trouble doing this too. I think i can sometimes translate about 70% of the page and then it goes paired shaped and that's as far as i go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethr Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I find that Google translation works best for Japanese. Still needs some imagination to get the meaning, though Yahoo Japan autos: http://list1.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/26318-category.html?

jase_93tt Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Best site I use for translations :- URL option: http://www.excite.co.jp/world/english/web/ I tend to use the word option though as depending on how some web pages are built, the translations come back meaningless:- http://www.excite.co.jp/world/english/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
