You may get a free copy of De-babbler by teleporting to this SL slurl:http://slurl.com/secondlife/Green/128/128/0
Several times I have encountered avatars who come from other countries. For instance, I met Asyu Allen who lives in Kyoto. I noticed that while he was typing in Japanese, I was seeing an English translation. I asked him about it, but he could not explain what was happening.
Here is the description:
“..is a Second Life object that instantly translates back and fourth between English, German, French, Italian, Japanese, and Chinese. So now, in Second Life, you can easily communicate with people who you’d have a hard time talking to in first life. Think about the implications for education! There’s a whole new world of communication and collaboration.”
After you teleport to “Green Island,” right click on the tall cylindrically shaped object. It is labeled “Babbler & Debabbler”.
Next, select touch. You will receive a pop-up asking if you wish to receive…. Select OK
If you are given a choice, select Debabbler instead of Babbler.
“The Babbler required the speaker to choose a native language and a language for their chat to be translated to. The De-Babbler (which is still in testing) allows the listener to choose a person in the vicinity and receive a translated version of their chat. This seems like a nice advance, since it means you no longer have to give someone a HUD and teach them how to use it — in a foreign language — before you can converse.”

You can also try the Hank Ramos Universal Translator. It is worn by only one person, and automatically translates chat between 24 different languages without any configuration. It works by dynamically determining what language each person speaks, and privately sending translations to each person as needed. It is truly universal, and doesn't require you to do anything other than speak in your native language. Search "universal translator" inworld, or do the same at either SLExchange.com or OnRez.com. Free version works for 60mins, low-cost USD$1 full-version also available. If you are a RL/SL Educator or an SL Mentor, contact Hank Ramos for a free full version.
Thanks for the great tip! I will try it.
The Hank Ramos Universal Translator is now FREE.
Apparently Max Case has either quit, lost interest or something along those lines. I assume this as the babbler & debabbler no longer gives the objects, nor do any other of his vendors apart from his keyboard dispenser. Also I would like to point out his website's account have either been suspended, banned or deleted.
