Colleen, I was the Internet owner for some IBM Web sites for many years, and we provided some content in multiple languages for our worldwide customers.  Babel Fish is a very literal translation, and should not be relied on for any corporate needs.  Not sure what your translation needs are, but if this is for a corporation with worldwide business needs, translation should be done by "validators" in the countries in which business is done.

 

Hope this helps,
