Thank you for visiting www.machine-altaica.com

The capital feature of this website, but the one you probably didn't come for, is a Turkish-to-English translator. Owing to limitations explained elsewhere, it is set up as a Turkish grammar illustrator: you give it a grammatically correct sentence drawing on a limited vocabulary, and it shows you, in color, what the words mean and then where they must go to add up to an intelligible English sentence. As a tutorial if not a tercüman, I think you'll find it useful, and I believe it does (just) qualify as "Turkish translation software." I invite you to open the translator itself, as well as the sample sentences and a glossary. (I used to have a single open-em-all link but it just wouldn't work with today's modern "security" interlocks. Well, now I present them with singly-dedicated links. For tutorial purposes, you really will need at least the sample sentences.)

Travel material - of which to my knowledge only the Colombia piece has ever been sought - is here.

Late note (November 2026): the translator no longer works, or even loads! I suppose it has to do with the Python .cgi calling a library that is no longer available. Am I going to rewrite the program? Probably not! In the meantime, I have to admit that Google Translate does a much better job of responding to input in one language with output in another language. It won't ornament or decorate either with color-coding, but unless you're a student of Turkish, you just don't need that. (If on the other hand you are the sort of student who wonders what word in German maps to another in Slovene, Google Translate may not be so reliable. I think for those unusual language-pairs, the thing goes through English, losing context in the process. I am quite sure that utegniti doesn't ever mean Mai.)
