Word or two about our translation tool

Although this translation is not 100% accurate, you can get a basic idea and with few modifications, it can be pretty accurate. This translation software is evolving day by day and Google Engineers are working on it to make Scots Gaelic translation more intelligent and accurate. Hopefully, one day it will produce near to perfect translation!

The Scots Gaelic language is widely spoken. More than 85,000 thousand people around the world speak this language. For the rest who cannot speak the Scots Gaelic Language, translating Scots Gaelic to English could be quite difficult. Many websites provide services to translate Scots Gaelic for a few dollars. While it is a good idea to pay for translating lots of text (such as books, articles) and for professional service, there is no point paying for commonly used sentences, greeting messages, and other informal use. For these purposes, this tool can be used.
