7. Instant online translation
Many home pages as well as search engines now offer a service termed e.g. 憈ranslate', 憈ranslator', or 憀anguage tools'. Under this service, you find an offer to have a translation done between a number of languages. At present Danish is not among them. The service works well only between English, French and Spanish and gives you an 80 to 90 per cent idea of the contents of the home page in atrocious (but understandable) translation.
