Yes, it is true that one can actually choose to use various websites that provide “free translation”. These include babelfish, Google translator amongst others. From here you can “translate” text, websites, your tattoo…etc.

However, although these free resources are sometimes handy to use, free machine translation does not replace professional human translations. Machine translation can only give you a basic (and sometimes vague) idea of the translated text and should perhaps only be used by individuals and certainly not businesses.

Machine Vs Human Translation

Machine translation is around 60 – 70% accurate. It can never be 100% simply because of the lack of the human touch! By this, I mean, a machine cannot possibly be aware of the cultural, accent, writing, political, religious and economical differences associated with a given word or phrase when translated into another language; later on construct a naturally flowing sentence that makes complete sense to the targeted reader (audience).
