Speaking as a surfer/player, when I go to a page that isn’t in my language and a translation is offered, my first thought is not ‘what horrible English’. I’m not there to trash the translator, I’m there for information that may be available on that site. If the translation is so bad you can’t make heads or tales of it, that’s a different matter, but a poor translation isn’t a turn off for me. I appreciate the fact that they offered a way for me to access the information on their site. What is a turn off is long download or processing time.
Hiring a pro to do your page is a great idea but is not a one time thing. It would have to be done every time content is changed on your site. Maybe a better idea would be to marry or date a linguist :laughing:
