When I was in high school, I took German, as my mother's family is German (Miller). We had a German exchange student who took the class for an easy A but almost failed because the German that was being taught wasn't his German. I tried (2 years high school, 2 years college) but was told by my professor to give up as I had no language aptitude. I couldn't read it, understand it or speak it.
Therefore, the first time we visited Germany in 1996, I took a German/English/German dictionary. I'd never been told Germany has about 163 different dialects. the dictionary was almost useless.
I wonder what version of each language the translator uses?

Great find, EW!
I ll try out these multiple translations.
On a separate but similar note, apart from Google Translate, I m a big fan of Duolingo, which I use for Irish and Turkish. And did you know, Duolingo teaches Valyrian and Klingon????
