speakeasy.gifWe forget that, although the Internet is primarily in English, if you write a business document to another user, they may not understand your words or intention. This can cause issues when we're trying to finalise a business deal, by email, across continents. It's too expensive to employ the use of a professional translator and, when you simply want to reply to an email, you haven't got time to wait for someone to translate your work.

SpeakLike is a system where you can send an email to another user, in your local language, and it will be translated and forwarded to the recipient. The reply can be within the local language, yet you receive a translated email back in to English. It's not quite on-the-fly, as you need to wait for the translation, but SpeakLike claim that this will be achieved in under an hour.
