Hope this works for people OK! Automatic translation is not usually very good - it's useful as long as you have the original text and know the original language a bit - saves you from needing a dictionary. These really don't look bad, though. I thought at first the German was way off, though on closer inspection it's not that bad, and if I was actually German I'd probably have "got it" quicker!

I hope this works for you and others. If we have enough positive responses, I'll talk to David (the site owner) about possibly building in the translation engine to the Forums.

Well I won't be using it as I'm English! But I think it's a good idea, all in all (as I said, the translations are not usually great, but often a lot better than nothing). Do you also mean to encourage people to contribute here in languages other than English?

ADD and other disorders know no geographical or languange barriers. Perhaps, if we have member who would prefer to post in their native language, we could start seperate sections :)
