This tool translates text and if you see any errors or areas for improvement, lets you suggest changes to improve the quality and readability of the translation. Using n.Fluent, wiki users can choose to refine translated sentences or words for greater accuracy. The tool actually "learns from its mistakes" and improves translation accuracy over time based on the corrections you provide.
