Ever noticed a little “translate” button like this on a web site?

Soon you’ll see more and more sites offering multiple language translations.

Think of the implications of this in a web site offering Bible verses or Bible Studies, for example.  Or an online discussion board about God which draws visitors from many countries.

Machine Translation = Language translation done on the fly by a computer. Up until very recently, the quality of machine translation was considered very poor.  There are just so many exceptions in language and grammar rules, that computers could not understand and contextualize translation jobs like the human brain does so well.  But, things are changing rapidly.  Watch the video. Pretty cool indeed.

Here is the direct link to the video.
