When you need a good translator, you need it to be ready at any moment. @promt fulfills this need perfectly, which is part of the reason it earned our "TopTenREVIEWS Silver Award." With a simple interface, @promt allows to translate on the fly through use of a simple hotkey interface. You highlight the text to translate and press the hotkey (which you can select yourself), then @promt will automatically give you a translation.
But the ease of use isn’t the most important part; it’s the accuracy of translations. Fortunately, @promt doesn’t disappoint when it comes to translations. @promt also comes with a full load of useful features that allow you to use it in many different situations.
Only the fact that @promt had fewer available languages and slightly less compatibility than the #1 product kept @promt from taking the top spot in our review. But even with these minor flaws, @promt remains an excellent translator.
@promt did better than almost every other program in this review at translating text into English. The @promt translations were clearer and more accurate than the competition. Most of the mistakes you might find with @promt will have to do with simple word-order mixups rather than incorrect translation. To see the test results or to find out how the tests were conducted, look at the articles Testing Methods, Test 1, Test 2 and Test 3.
You get a lot of useful features with @promt, like the ability to select text and have it translated automatically. This allows you to cut down on the time it takes to do translations. It also prevents you from flipping back and forth between screens, as other programs force you to do by cutting and pasting text into the translator.
@promt allows you to translate entire files and use the integrated spell check on your own text. This makes @promt useful, not only for translating other writer’s text into English, but for translating your own text into another language without errors. @promt comes with a text-to-speech function that pronounces words for you in the translation language, which is especially useful if you are more familiar with speaking a language rather than writing it.
@promt is extremely easy to use because of its hotkey system. All you do is select text and hit your preselected hotkey; @promt does the rest. You can also translate entire files through the simple interface or copy and past text into the program. The rest of the features and functions are also easily accessible through the main interface.
