Personal Translator 2008 translated it back and forth to produce: "Does this translate correctly or does it execute a vaguely literal translation which spoils the word order?" Pretty impressive.
Google came up with: "Is this really translate, or were there some vague literal translation of the word until medium?" Enough said. Of course that's just a quick test, but the difference speaks for itself. Read more ....

Linguatec Personal Translator 2008 is an excellent program. Besides its superior translation, it can also work fairly well with entire documents and PDF files. Read more ....


An example is "Neural Transfer" (pending patent) in the Linguatec translation software Personal Translator 2008 (standard version 49 Euros). The process can correctly determine the meaning of words with more than one meaning using their context. An identical word, depending on the context, can be correctly translated over and beyond sentences. For example, Linguatec Personal Translator identifies whether the word “polish” means to clean something or somebody from Poland by means of the word’s context. (Translated into English)

There were absolutely no problems (as expected) with the installation under Windows XP with SP2.
The manual is an exemplary piece of work,
supplying the user with detailed helpful infos! The menu guide is extremely transparent, no questions on usage – once again, can only be described as exemplary. In short: the programme is simply… class! Happy to report no negative findings with this test.
Verdict: A professional software that impresses every time!
The integrated voice output of the Personal Translator Pro, which amazed us again with its incredible (phonetically correct) quality, is also a particularly special feature!
Test result: The advertising claims were absolutely justified! Our recommendation for translation software! Mark: Very good, 98 % (as before)
