The Translation Channel


Sherlock's Translation channel (Figure 40) uses online software tools to translate words and phrases between several languages, including: English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Type in what you want to translate, click a button, and let Sherlock do the rest.

Tip

  • Because translations are handled by software tools and not by human translators, they should not be relied upon for complete accuracy.


To translate a word or phrase

1.

Open the Translation channel (Figure 40).

2.

Enter the word or phrase you want to translate in the Original Text box.

3.

Select a translation option from the pop-up menu (Figure 41).

Figure 41. The pop-up menu offers quite a few translation options.


4.

Click the Translate button between the top and bottom halves of the Translation window. The translation and a fine-print disclaimer appear in the bottom half of the window (Figure 42).
