How to translate Word document from German to English?

Is there an add-on for OpenOffice 3.0 that will allow me to select text and translate it into a different language, or will I have to use an online translator and go piece by piece?|||Don't put your trust into ANY machine translators. They kind of work between French and English for very simple texts, because the 2 languages have a similar syntax. They do not work at all for languages like German or Russian with their plethora of morphemes and their complicated syntax.





Sometimes I put a text in for a laugh. It's often very funny to put something in and then have the result translated back into the original language. Unless somebody went to the trouble to translate an idiomatic expression - and very often no-one did - all you will get is gibberish.|||That answer was absolutely useless. There is nothing in the question regarding a machine. The question dealt with an add-on that MIGHT be available for open office. If there is not one available the answer would have been NO. There was no answer here, there was simply an opinion.
