What Language Translator do I buy?

June 18, 2010 - 9:36 am 1 Comment

I am planning a Europe Trip next year for about 5 weeks. I will be in Portugal, Spain, Italy, France, and Croatia. So… I would like a translator that catches all of those. I know there are a lot of 6 language translators out there and Portuguese, so I may be ok having that taken out.

I was thinking of getting a talking one, but don’t want to spend over $50. Got any favorites or recommendations?

I would recommend you not to left out Portuguese. Just make sure you get one with Portugal’s Portuguese. Picture this: if you are talking to someone Portuguese with a Brazilian accent and your Brazilian accent is not good, we’ll (I’m Portuguese) probably won’t be able to understand you… Same for Spanish, make sure it is Spain’s Spanish.

I don’t know what Spanish and Portuguese this one has and it doesn’t have Croatian: http://www.amazon.com/Palm-Speaking-Language-Translator-P10936U/dp/B0000E5SFF

This one doesn’t have Croatian, but it says it is European (so I’m guessing it has the right Spanish and Portuguese): http://www.amazon.com/Franklin-Language-European-Translator-FR-TJS12/dp/B002IT2ZWC/ref=dp_cp_ob_e_title_3
