I hope here is the right place for it, but translators belong to "media", and therefore I decided to put this topic here...

I will post here some links for automatical online translators that can translate from Bulgarian and Russian to English (and to other languages).

I think it´s time for this now, because I think that some of you might need them from time to time, not only for translating links in this forum here, but in other forums, too. For me all those translators have always been useful during the last year, therefore I intend sharing them here...

And real fans of Albena and Maxim who speak neither Bulgarian nor Russian (as me) really might need a quick translation from time to time, when they want to know what has happened to our darlings, and what they are doing ...

All these translators are for free (at least at the moment when I post this message here), and you do not have to pay for them!

Even the download version for a translator that I will list below is for free. You can install it on your pc, and it is working in off-modus, this means you can use it for texts that are not from the web, too. And if you really have time you can mix the google-translator with the download version, and your translation will be near to perfect...

All these translators are not 100% perfect, but they are helpful for persons who do not speak the language and who want to have a 90% idea what is going on in the article...

All translators work the same / following way:
1) Go to the (Bulgarian or Russian) text you want to translate. Mark it, and then copy it with your mouse.
2) Go to the translator you decided to use. There is always a free field where you can insert / paste the text you have copied before.
3) At most translators you then have to choose the language from which you want to translate, and the language into which you want to translate.
4) Then click on "Übersetzen" / "translate" / "Translation" or something like this, and normally some seconds later you have the translation.

Good luck!!!

Let´s start with the links now ...

The link to one of my favourite online translators. The instruction here is in German, but other posters told me that there exist google versions in nearly every language... I think you will figure it out if you search the links on the google homepage ...

This translator can translate from Bulgarian to English and from Russian to English! And vice versa of course!

One of the oldest online translators in the web, and the "mother" of all the other translators: Babelfish!

With Babelfish you can translate from Russian to English, but, sorry (!), not from Bulgarian to English.

My first translator from Bulgarian to English (and vice versa)! I loved this translator for many months! And till today I´m thankful to our Ivana who gave me the link to this translator! Without Ivana´s link (especially in the very beginning and in the baddest times of all, a little bit more than one year ago, when a lot of posters stopped posting and left this forum!) no translations would have been possible at all! And where are no translations, there are no informations...

So, here´s the link to "Ivana´s translator" :
http://www.bulgarie-bg.com/tradbulgarian.php

This is the main page for the translator from Bulgarian to English (and vice versa of course) that you can download to your pc!

http://webtrance.skycode.com/?lang=en

You should read it first to inform you! There exists two (or three ) versions to download: one is for free, and for the other you have to pay!!! So be cautious and make sure you download the correct one!

And this should be the download link for the free version (but make sure yourself, because I did it nearly one year ago and I do not have time to check again!). There´s a blue-green arrow at the top of the page, and on the left you find the word "HERE" in brown letters. Click there and it should work. For me it´s working without problems for nearly one year now... and until now I did not receive a bill from Bulgaria ...

Good luck with this translator! It´s my second favourite (and verrrrry close to Ivana´s translator!)...

Petra, do you know where are the videos about CoR GP commented by Maxim???
I asked if someone could translate what Max was sayng about Davis&White, but nobody replied...

Now I hope in Wondergirl!!!

Girls, sorry! I can't find where to post... Help me to navigate here...
I am writing what I've promised for Piemontesina

First of all I should say that I liked so much that this year my favourite channel Eurosport invited Max as a commentator. He is a GREAT commentator, very smart, cute and with a wonderful sense of humour!!!
I found the Free Dance from Cup of Russia with Davis/White. Here is what Max was saying:

‘First of all Meryl & Charlie should forget about the mistakes during their Original dance and go ahead. This pair is very flexible and technically good. And if they skate clear they will have a chance to stand higher in the end of competition. Shpilband’s pairs differ from others in their movements. They haven’t any not-finished movements. You can dislike the program, the music, everything, but if they are skating, they do every step till the end. There are no empty holes in the programs.
About this skating I can say that they did all the steps, all the positions were normal. But I can’t say their directions [here I really had problems because I don’t know the real English names of all elements] were clear. They have them [directions or arcs – I don’t know what is correct variant], but for the Worlds they should improve if they want to win. I liked one lift: when the partner takes M. behind his back being on one leg at this moment. It’s really hard! The twizzles were very fast but not parallel. It is good that they have such speed of rotation, you should risk and do it. Of course you can have mistakes, but you should practice, so you’ll get stability. And with the help of that you will win.
In general, their skating was confident, strong and soft. The pair is very aesthetic.’

That’s all Max said about this pair.
I saw every broadcast where Max was. I laughed a lot! And also on every our forums (even sport forums) practically everybody liked his comments!!! There are a lot of his jokes there. He has a talent!

Petra, thanks for opening this topic it's very useful for all of us!

This is the web translator I use:

And big thanks to Wondergirl for translating Max's commentaries

No, Petra, there is no Bulgarian language.
It translates very well indeed, I use it more often to translate from Russian into English posts from the Ice Age forum
