Sometimes websites add new features and put a little popup box next to the feature with an explanation of it, cool, cool, I like it...but if it's in Gmail or Facebook, I have to do an extra step of translating, cause I can only guess so much of the text (I have them in German for those that didn't know).

That's what I did when Gmail added the contacts in the conversation. But I don't just copy & paste, I type it all myself. Sometimes it helps to see how the translation actually changes when adding new words, and I also now don't find it weird how in German the verbs are almost always at the end. Of course, sometimes I have to guess something, cause the translation is weird, like in the pic: "Some actions, such as the minimize / maximize, are now over icons to the right", yeah, totally makes sense, haha.
Also, I found out that 3 people (or one person 3 times) found my blog by googling "socially awkward fellow", hahaha.
haha that is cool. We tried learning french like that, but we failed. We did use google translate, but we didn't type it ourselves, so your method is much better! Funny about the search terms lol
