Best, most accurate translations

chamac · 03-17-2010, 04:58 PM

I am looking to register some IDNs, but I have found, on different sites, different translations for the same word. The punycode is different.
I would appreciate some help if someone could tell me the best place to go to get a translation into another language.

Thanks

Babelfish and Google translate can give you a rough idea, but no translation site/software is 100%. There is no subtitute then running it by someone who's native language you need translated, they can give you the appropriate words based on context, grammar, etc.

Check, check and recheck.

Go to forums that specialize in IDN, many "native speakers" for a lot of languages. Use registrars that have a delete facility for when you find what you have registered is useless garbage.
