How to translate from german to english on eBay.de?

Being unilingual and dealing with people from around the world, I use Goggle Translate on a daily basis. It might not always get the translation dead accurate but you generally get a fair idea of what has been said unless there have been spelling mistakes made in the original language.

 

If you need to use it to translate something from English to another language, be sure not to use slang. And think very carefully how to say something straight, without colloquialisms. This is something that I struggle with. (Spoken English is very silly in that respect.) 

 

Also, many Germans speak excellent English. You might try to contact the seller directly. 

 

Good luck!

When I use Google Translate, I also include my original English text, and note that the translation is from Google.

I do allot of my buying on German E-Bay, I can speak enough German to get by. You will find most of the younger German sellers can speak English  any way and the older sellers will try to help you out. Allot of the Sellers that sell to North America can speak English and have it on the Auctions.& as mentioned before you can use Google if you are stuck
