Foreign Languages Resources on the World Wide Web, from Berkeley.

Alta Vista Translating Service Type in the URL of a web-page you'd like translated to or from a foreign language and this service will do it for you. Or you can type in your own text, choose your language, and the computer will translate. Translations are available in German, French, Spanish, and Portuguese, both to and from. Remember, though, this is a computer, not a human being, doing the translating, and some of the translations can be laughably inappropriate.
