automatic translation finnish -> english

perhaps people have noticed already but google have added finnish to the list of languages translated by google translate.
the page is here http://www.google.com/translate and you can even paste in a web page and it will do reasonably well at translating it, even links are followed and translated.

some of the translations are a bit over eager though, for some reason klaukkala is translated to Hamilton !

and some other place names look very scottish too

Aaahh.... that makes life that little bit easier....
Now, if people who know both languages can help out by clicking the "Suggest a better translation" here and there.....

btw, it makes trying to read finnish websites easier as once you translate the first page, it will keep translating as you navigate the site...

Still gotta learn the local tongue for myself tho...

Having two browsers side by side can be very helpfull, even with the sh*tty translation.
