摘要：In the past few years, free and readily available Web- based machine translation (MT) services have appeared that can meet the needs of fast, informal translation needs. However, few if any studies have been conducted on these services to determine their accuracy. This study used perhaps the most successful, commercially available, online MT system to translate sample Spanish text of varying difficulty into English, which was then evaluated by 92 undergraduate business students for understandability. Results show that only two of the 12 text samples were not understood.
