I have created two sites for my Aunts travel companies and I would like to add an option to be able to view them in French, unfortunately I only speak English and I know two websites that translate text to other languages but am not sure how good they actually are…is there and easy and FREE way to do this?

Thanks

I think Google's is pretty good, although I'm no expert.

babelfish (http://world.altavista.com/) is thought of as quite good, another I know if is freetranslation.com (http://www.freetranslation.com)

Babledfish is pretty good. I wouldn't rely too much on translators as alot is lost when translating from one language to another. If you do translate like this get someone who speaks and reads the language to go over it after translation to ensure its sound.

I know French (up to post-A Level standard) so I will check the babelfish translation for you if you want. ;) As long as it's not too long, it should be OK.
