I want to get the translation a few english words into many different languages. 

eg. I want the tralslation of the word "central" in latin, french,
spanish, hindi, ... (many many languages)

Is there a website/service out there whereby i can enter the word and
get the multitude of translations?

Hi! Thanks for the question.

I found the following websites that can help you. I provided different
resources since some sites have languages that the other sites don't.

Foreignword - Most extensive tool. Instead of clicking "Go" when you
are ready to translate, you should click "Next" instead and you'll get
better results.

Hi easterangel, 

The foreignword service always comes up with a "server not found"
error when i click on next (or go).

As for the other services, they only let me do one translation at a
time... which is quite cumbersome, i'm really looking for something
that once i enter the word, will give me the translation in numerous
languages automatically (without me having to do one translation at a
time).

simran.

Hi! 

Foreignword.com is doing fine on my end here. Maybe it will be good to
try again a little later since it also loads very slow in my PC.


If you want an immediate translation of a word into different
languages in one page, Logos Dictionary will be of help. Please use
the following steps.


1. Go to this link: http://www.logos.it/pls/dictionary/new_dictionary.dictio_professional_window?u_name=&u_password=&u_code=4395&code_language=_code=4395&code_language=

2. Click the "Search" button.

3. Here is the tricky part. Sometimes you get an immediate translation
like for the word "Umbrella". It is immediately translated into
different languages.

Sometimes though you still need to go to another page and click a
"Translate" button to get the necessary translations. This is possibly
due to the context of a word. You will have to scroll down the
different word context and it shows how many languages it was
translated.


I hope this would help.

Thanks.

Cool... thankyou... exactly what i was looking for :-)
