You have to download this type of program. I used to have one for Chinese. They contain I think a Word Document thing like MS Word. Well mine did.

If you have Windows XP, go to Control Panel > Regional and Language Settings. Click the Languages tab, and check Install for East Asian Languages. Click OK. You will be prompted to put your XP CD into your CD drive. The files will then install, and you will be asked to reboot.
To use the language, open Word (or some other word processing program). Switch your keyboard layout to whatever language you plan on using, then use a font for that language. You should be good to go. (XP will install fonts for supported languages for you, no need to find any.) |

^ Please don't spam. If you're gonna say "what blah said, then you might has well not post at all.
 You have to transfer your computer to the language you want. At least..that's how my teacher does it. |

There are some downloadable softwares in some stores that you can download for certain types of languages. But, this is what I do, so you won't spend that much money; Go to Altavista Babelfish, type in some words/phrases/sentence/paragraphs/etc. Then select from and to languages, translate it, and copy and paste the characters of languages. It's pretty simple.

It's pretty simple. To be honest, i dont like that method. One time, I saw the informal version of "Sorry" in Korean (mi an hae yo). I knew it was the informal version but i wanted to check to see if it was correct. i translated at babelfish and i got one of the most inacurrate translations i heard. Something to do with "beautiful." Since "Mi" means beautiful in korean, i could see why it was inacurrately translated. Korean has a lot of ways to be formal/informal, so i really can't rely on babelfish sometimes. i'm going to try out mipadi's method. + edit okay, i got that. but my main point is to try to type korean. i dont have office xp, i have office 2000. any tips? |
