I think that translator's pretty decent actually - but I havent got a clue what the buttons do, I only know "si" and "no" in spanish...

On the other hand... "It has grooves SD/MMC and CF type II, which is hallucinating." BWAHAHAHAHA it can turn out SOOO fun sometimes...

It's a pretty good site... I'm even able to read almost everything, which is surprising.

words are the same in every language, it's simply a matter of how differently they're spelled. Take the popular PocketMatrix phrase "abra la boca" for example. From "Abra kuh dabra" you'd know that abra means "open" and la is a participle which comes after a verb and thus boca must be the object of the verb. From the context and the 'feel' of the word you can clearly decipher that "boca" is the "mouth." So, open the mouth, with "you" being understood, and you get open your mouth. Simple semantics.

Yeah, but reading accurately is another thing.

You don't need to read accurately. Language isn't about the commas and the dots on the I's, it's about the meaning, the feeling. Language is an art, people don't think Picasso is garbage because his people are messed up.

Language is also a form of communication, not just art.

There's more to understanding language than dotting I's or whatnot. Otherwise, language classes wouldn't exist.

That's for fine tuning your thoughts into a standard form. Thoughts can still be expressed using inaccurate grammar. Sometimes, like Picasso's paintings, inaccuracy can better reflect thoughts than accuracy does.
