Title: Elxis Translation capabilities
Post by: greentara261 on April 17, 2007, 06:22:44

1. I wonder what might be the accuracy level for English->Chinese? and the other pairs?

2. Would you have English->Japanese and English->Korean?

3. Could you reveal what translation engine is being used here?

4. Would the translation engine(s) be opened for commercial licensing? esp. for CJK languages.

5. Any reviews comparing your translation engine to Google Translate & Babelfish?

Thanks.

As a machine translation the translation result is not totally accurate specially for non western languages. Translation gives good results for english to/from french, german, Italian, spanish. We advise you to check (if possible) the translated test before publishing or to write a notice for the readers that the text comes from automatic translation and might not be accurate.

Do you have it in a component form for Joomla?

If you have seen the movie "300" or you know the history behind the Thermopylae battle, king Leonidas said to the Persian ambasador: "This is Sparta". So, in the same spirit, I say to you "This is Elxis".
