Ok, I have recently found a slight interest in making some of my documents (books I'm writing), translated into german. Now, I don't know if this should be posted here or not, but can you guys tell me the best proffesional g-e e-g translating software out there to BUY? I would like to know the price, too.

Um, trusting software to do translation for you is a bad idea. That's like running the Word spell-checker and assuming your document is perfect when it passes.

lol, yeah. German words have multiple meanings, or rather, a broad meaning to them. So you will get some words that make it very bad engirsh.

Pay someone to do it, or look online. It's not worth it at all to use a machine for translation. You get sloppy translations. If you want something small done, I can do a bang up job. I cannot write in beautiful German, but I can try. www.wernerr.de has an excellent electronic dictionary to download for free, if you speak some German, adn want to do your own bang up job.
