A Spanish cow? I wasn't aware that they were capable of writing. I didn't need translation for this. I don't know the language very well, yet am familiar enough with it to read and translate basic statements like "It is not a replacement for knowledge of the language." The program that I use is a simple translator, which is not intended to help win any literary awards. In fact, I could have said most of it, but needed the program for the necessary punctuation marks.

I speak fluent Spanish (Spanish Minor in college, 9 years total classroom study), so assimilating similar romantic languages is fairly easy on a rudementary level. I can say enough things in French to get me into trouble on the Riviera, but that's about all.
