Tradukka is one the most impressive free online translation services on the world wide web for one simple reason – it provides translation in almost real time, and supports 72 different languages. Be it Arabic, Catalan, Chinese, Czech, French, German Spanish, you name it all. Powered by Google Translate API, jQuery, and qTip, this tool performs translation at an amazingly fast rate (almost in real time). Frankly speaking, I personally feel that Tradukka is much more effective than Google Translate or Yahoo! Babelfish.

In Google Translate, you would have to select the language from the drop-down menu and click on the ‘Translate’ button for Google to display the translation results. On the other hand, Tradukka works so fast that sometimes you don’t have to hit the ‘Translate’ button for the results to appear. All you need to do is to paste your text into the textfield provided, choose your preferred language, and in a blink of an eye, it has been translated.

However, Tradukka has a downside – it doesn’t support webpage translation.
