But Google is doing its bit adding 10 new languages to its online translation service.
The new entries are Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Finnish, Hindi, Norwegian, Polish, Romanian and Swedish,
This brings the total number of languages offered to 23.

Google said: "While our system is quite good, we know it's not perfect" but claims that the ability to translate pages is one of the biggest steps "in making information universally accessible".
