I use on-line dictionaries to check my work. By the way, Spanish is not an easy language to translate into and you have to be quite fluent in it to do a really good job. Linguee is a good on-line one as well as word reference. Should you need any help, please let me know. I a currently translating a book from Spanish into English, well, rather, I am doing the revision of it. Linguee is really good because I get several synonyms to choose from, in context even. Tina

Thank you Andrea. Spanish spell check is now working for me. Wow, I was amazed at how many times I used the right word but from the wrong language (some English and some Italian).
