"Rosy" translates on the fly - Impressive!

ok, I added Magyar and Spanish. I've got a feeling the magyar might be a bit cryptic!

Well, a "magyar" noun can have about 1,200 different forms (an English noun normally has 2 - singular and plural) We even conjugate infinitives.
What do you expect from Google?

Hey Chris, could you also try Romanian when you have time?
Thanks. -

I must say that the spanish translation is a lot much better than in Google translate.. but still has glitches.
If I only read the rosy translation I understand that rosy plays the guitar for you and that you play to be a kid. Changing 5 or 6 words will make a perfect translation.
But is really helpful to have rosy. Thank you for showing this Chris!Daniel S

Just, thought of a cool tool for forums.
What if Rosy could be integrated into forums, so anyone can read and write no matter what their native labguage is. I mean every message could be translated into english, the normal messgae would be up, and the translated message would be bellow in something similar to what the quote are now or viceversa.
That would be awesomeI know that wave does that already, but what if you don't wnat to use a wave.....

That is precisely what "waves" are going to do for us soon. They can be embedded in forums like this. So this whole thread would be a "wave" that all of us subscribe to. And any of us could add the Rosy bot to it, and she would transalte between any langugage we specify. Its pretty cool stuff! And the Wave API is open, so people can already start embedding Wave features into websites.

Well then, can't wait

chris,
just saw your first post. compared to other translation engines this is an amazing improvement. the translation is not 100% correct but it makes complete sense. besides, not all portuguese speakers have total command of their language... wave seems to be very promising.
regards.

Sorry Chris, I've just realised you added the Hungarian thing to the first post. Well,let meput this way; hopefully Wave will come out of beta one day with certain improvements...
As you could see, there were even words/expressions (almost a line) that weren't even translated just put in there in English.If I red that Hungarian text, I would maybe more or less understand what you are trying to say but if there's somebody near you who can translate, I'd definitely ask.

I don't see French Chris test
Are you beta testing of this surfer's wave?
