Yes Babelfish is interesting concept, but it has its limitations. Take for example the post on the F4F.
As originally posted by Scott Jenkins:
Looking for 3 view drawing of a F4F Wild Cat. This is going to be the flagship racing model for the young marines Bull Dog racing program. If you guys have not thought about volunteering or helping out with this youth group in your area. You are missing a great chance to keep Control line aviation alive. After working with about a dozen of these youths on three different weekends. I can tell you that they are motivated and are different from most kids today, plus have a high interest in Model Aviation.
As translated by Babelfish into Spanish:
Buscar el dibujo de 3 visiónes de un gato salvaje de F4F. Éste va a ser el buque insignia que compite con el modelo para el programa que compite con de los infantes de marina del perro joven de Bull. Si usted los individuos no ha pensado de ofrecerse voluntariamente o de ayudar hacia fuera con este grupo de la juventud en su área. Usted está faltando una gran ocasión de mantener la línea aviación del control viva. Después de trabajar con alrededor de una docena de estas juventudes en tres diversos fines de semana. Puedo decirle que que sean motivados y que sean diferentes de la mayoría de los cabritos hoy, más tenga un alto interés en la aviación modelo.
And, if you translate the above back to English, here is what you get:
To look for the drawing of 3 visiónes of a wild cat of F4F. This one is going to be the ship standard that competes with the model for the program that competes with of the infants of navy of the young dog of Bull. If you individual them it has not thought to offer themselves voluntarily or to help towards outside with this group of youth in his area. You are lacking a great occasion to maintain the line aviation of the alive control. After working with around a dozen of these youths in three diverse week ends. I can say to him that that is motivated and that they are different from most of the cabritos today, it more has a high interest in aviation model.
Point is Babelfish is coming along, but it has a long way to go. The translation you get may not be as precise as you were hoping.
