By Cai Shanshan (chinadaily.com.cn)
Updated: 2009-08-25 16:59 China Daily website launched its live translation robot nicknamed "Xiao D" via Windows Live Messenger in August. "Xiao D", which includes popular words and phrases collected by China Daily website, offers an exclusive real-time translation service for its readers.
Different from most translation robots, Xiao D is more trustworthy, credible and colloquial in translation both from English to Chinese and vice versa. Xiao D demonstrates its astuteness in providing interpretation for words and phrases from various fields, including hot words, idioms, words for daily use and special jargon. Xiao D also translates words and phrases in an explanatory and interpretive way rather than word-by-word. So, with each translation placed into context, Xiao D offers an example sentence which helps users to better understand the usage of the questioned word or phrase. Besides its solid translation offering, Xiao D, now has 8 twin brothers and is quite friendly and easy-going. Being online for 24 hours, the robot never sends unnecessary messages to its users but is always ready to serve. Its powerful, convenient and accurate service has helped the robot (xiaodi007@live.cn) attract thousands of users already. You too can benefit by adding any address ranging from xiaodi001@live.cn to xiaodi009@live.cn to your MSN to start enjoying the service now. As they say, a friend in need is a friend indeed, so why not give it a try and let Xiao D be that perfect friend. Illustration: Step One: Add xiaodi001@live.cn(or 002 to 009) as a contact on MSN
