Hi and Assalamou alaykoum

I would like to know if you use Machine translation (MT) for your translations.

I tried some, and it is very bad.

I translate from arabic to french.

It is difficult to find MT for this pair of languages. The only ones that are working are Google and Microsoft.

Any suggestions?

Thank you very much for your advices.

Best regards,
Suzanne Oumm Ayoub

Hi, I am not an expert but I wrote my MA thesis on machine translation recently. AFAIK the Google system still gives the best results. It is slightly more useful if you use it with http://translate.google.com/toolkit. Cheers!
