Uh, "leaving" isn't the right word, Joyce. Incorrect English or not, "have done way way left" us behind is closer. Most of us, anyway. I truly hate the internet and use it as little as possible. I don't understand telephones that take pictures and have keyboards. I still write letters and use stamps. And if you get my answering machine, I'm "not home"! I don't need to "stay connected" at the grocery store, or check with my Facebook friends about what restaurant I should eat at. But, that's the way it is with the younger generation. More power to them, I guess. If you need help with your computer, ask a 10 year old. But Google translation does leave much to be desired, so take it with a grain of salt. It can give you the essence of what is being asked, mostly, but boy does it mangle the translation of some words, hee heehee. Hugs, Marji

I agree that I am being left behind. But I take comfort in knowing that a real hug is much more satisfying than a cyber hug.

ah yes but what would we do without them! Hugs Loralye

Joyce if you want to translate something on cute (or elsewhere) quickly, just highlight in blue, right click your mouse and in the menu choose "translate with Bing".
It will give you a good idea of what it says and if you need a better translation, go to google.

I use google translate and often I question if it is telling me an appropriate translation. Sounds like your GS knows more than I do!

I use Google translation almost daily for the french and other cutie sites that I don't understand. What will we do without it??? Buy dictionairies - of course - but no space for all the languages. Yeah, the youth have it all at their fingertips. ****

For me, the internet is like living inside a library, and a video is worth a thousand words. But if I want to talk to my friend, I pick up the phone. And I still love to curl up with a book in hand.

Reading here how some translate another language with google I highlighted and then right clicked on it. A box opened up and down twords the bottom it says "translate with live search" so I clicked on that and it works. Not sure why I did the right click, just did it. Wow quick and easy. thanks to those here who talked about translating I can now read what some of our lovely cuties here are saying. Hugs

The older generation isn't being left behind, an 11 year old child is leading many into a greater understanding of the internet. Ask any child under the age of 14 and they will show you many great tricks with computers. They may also teach you to LOL or ROFL or BRB or TTYL and in the end, be sure to say TY. ;)
