This is the latin non-translatable text used for decades as “dummy text” to fill in word space in testing book, magazine, newsletter, and now web and blog designs so the designer can see what the text will look like by font, color, justification, spacing, and so on. You can learn more from Lorem Ipsum.

ok can u please tell me what language this shit is written in becasue there is no site that you can just put the fricken test in and be done with. why cant yall just translate this and tell ME what language it is. this is gay but if you feel what im saying then email please i would love to hear from you

I found your blog while googling with the exact same question you had… but I remembered having seen this solution once:

http://translation.langenberg.com/

In the middle of the page full of text boxes you’ll find “Identify/Guess Language”. Paste in some text in the unknown language and it gives you the name of the language. It does even seems to work :-).

(Actually the site offers services provided by others. Funny: I noticed is that one of these “identify the language”-sites is Dutch)

Best regards,

I’m a Dutch/French speaking Belgian using English to communicate with Italian colleagues in the Czech Republic, so please ignore my mistakes

Marc, your English is excellent, and I assume your Dutch is perfect ;-), but how do you handle the language conflicts, when you don’t recognize the language and you still want to read what it says? Have you found any resources to help translate websites without knowing in advance the language it’s written in?

Perhaps a little off topic regarding this post, but I’ll try to explain a little of the article you’re talking about. When I read a part of the translation of my posting “Hoe actueel is je weblog”, I couldn’t agree more translation services are far from perfect.

About the post, I’ve asked the Dutch bloggers do they take care about postings which are out of date. I mean, my blog statistics show sometimes visitors using Google finding a post on my weblog. However, the post could contain links to particular plugins or tools which are old (a new version of the tool is available using some other link). So in fact, my weblog contains URL’s which are not very usable anymore: unhappy visitors are the result, because they are using my weblog and don’t find what they were looking for.

In the comments a lot of discussion took place with a general conclusion it’s not possible to update all your blogs and it’s a hell of a job to avoid our postings contain old links (I don’t mean dead links, that’s something you should and can avoid using simple tools). In fact, a weblog is not an encyclopedia, that’s what people saying.

Hopefully, readers realise enough the information they find in a blog may contain these old links and therefor could be out of date. Google isn’t that intelligent to put new content on top by default. It’s a fact bloggers have to deal wit. For me your post “Do you update posts of post updates” triggered me to blog about this subject and to realise we have this problem.

Hopefully my English was good enough to tell you what this post is all about, since the translation of WorldLingo will not help you at all, I’m afraid.
