thank you for suggestion of on-line translation but have you ever tried to translate something and translate it back? it looks awful - that's why "live" translators are still earning money. a machine does not understand metaphors and word usage. for example, what would you think about a phrase "it does not occupy(borrow) a lot of time? funny? it is a machine translation of something like "it does not take a lot of time"
