Today I tried five translators other than Ferd’s Free which I already used before. In today’s exploration, “AF Translator Basic” is the ONLY ONE that worked. It is a paid translator which has better functions than Ferd’s Free. On the other hand, the links to “X-Lang” and “Q-translator”, retrieved from the blog I reviewed, are not working any more. Next time I may try to search Google for some new links to the two translators. Besides, I tried “MH translator” and “Imprudence 1.4.2 viewer” translator (different from 1.3 viewer given by Darryl), but they did not work for some unknown reasons. I suppose one possible reason is incompatibility of different HUDs.
Anyway, next week I will either try to figure out and solve these problems, or try some other translators available. If anyone of you, including Darryl, is interested, please try some of these translators. Your experience may help me out of the dilemma.
Moreover, I changed my male avatar into a female avatar named “Jennifer Wong”. I did this to attract more SL residents, mostly male, to talk to me so that I would have a better chance to test my translators on different linguistic groups. Sarraline helped me to set up my avatar and gave my avatar a gesture to make it walk in a feminine manner. Also, she gave a necklace to protect my avatar from being bitten by vampires. It is said that my avatar will die and all stuff will be gone once it is bitten by one of these vampires haunting in SL. How odd it is!
MH translator costs about 370 Lindens.
Before buying MH translator, you can have a try on MH translator DEMO, which costs 1 Linden and can be only used in MH shop.
Finally, AF translator, 180 Lindens, was the only one that worked today. And it worked well!
I changed my male avatar into a female avatar whose name is “Jennifer Wong”. It sounds like a name of a cute oriental beauty in real world, right? Hope more guys will chat up with me. Ha ha!
nice female name. good idea to transfer character gender to female, interesting.
