Abstract

Eine englische oder französische Website mal schnell ins Deutsche übersetzen - nichts einfacher als das. OnlineÜbersetzungsdienste versprechen den Sprachtransfer per Mausklick und zum Nulltarif. Doch was taugen sie wirklich? Online-Übersetzungsdienste wollen die Sprachbarriere im WWW beseitigen. Die automatischen Übersetzer versprechen, die E-Mail-Korrespondenz verständlich zu machen und das deutschsprachige Surfen in fremdsprachigen Webangeboten zu ermöglichen. Englische, spanische oder gar chinesische EMails und Websites können damit per Mausklick schnell in die eigene Sprache übertragen werden. Auch komplizierte englische Bedienungsanleitungen oder russische Nachrichten sollen für die Dienste kein Problem sein. Und der eine oder andere Homepage-Besitzer träumt davon, mit Hilfe der digitalen Übersetzungshelfer seine deutsche Website in perfektem Englisch online stellen zu können - in der Hoffung auf internationale Kontakte und höhere Besucherzahlen. Das klingt schön - doch die Realität sieht anders aus. Wer jemals einen solchen Dienst konsultiert hat, reibt sich meist verwundert die Augen über die gebotenen Ergebnisse. Schon einfache Sätze bereiten vielen Online-Über setzern Probleme-und sorgen unfreiwillig für Humor. Aus der CNN-Meldung "Iraq blast injures 31 U.S. troops" wird im Deutschen der Satz: "Der Irak Knall verletzt 31 Vereinigte Staaten Truppen." Sites mit schwierigem Satzbau können die Übersetzer oft nur unverständlich wiedergeben. Den Satz "The Slider is equipped with a brilliant color screen and sports an innovative design that slides open with a push of your thumb" übersetzt der bekannteste Online-Dolmetscher Babelfish mit folgendem Kauderwelsch: "Der Schweber wird mit einem leuchtenden Farbe Schirm ausgerüstet und ein erfinderisches Design sports, das geöffnetes mit einem Stoß Ihres Daumens schiebt." Solch dadaistische Texte muten alle Übersetzer ihren Nutzern zu.
