The Travel Translator is this summers must have gadget for the weary British traveller. It not only says the phrase you need out loud in the language of your choice, but will say it in your language as well as the translated one, so that you know exactly what you're saying and can avoid any "excuse me but there seems to be a Belgian in my salad. Please contact a chiropractor" moments. There's nothing quite like jetting from continent to continent, drinking in the scenery, the culture, and no doubt the alcohol, and desperately shouting "egg and chips" as loud as you can at the local innkeeper in a vain attempt to ensure your rich and varied diet isn't interrupted by something as trivial as being thousands of miles from home. Of course, we're not all like that on our holidays, some of us like nothing more than truly absorbing our surroundings and chatting with the locals, and what better way to do that than with the Travel Translator? This handy pocket sized gizmo holds over 8000 commonly used phrases in a whopping 12 languages, handily organised into eight categories, so the next time you're desperately trying to buy some paracetamol after a few too many sambucas you'll be able to zip in and out of the chemists without having to resort to an advanced series of mimes (with or without balloon animals). It's no easy task learning a new language, but everyone appreciates somebody who tries their best. Make sure you're never lost for words on holiday again.
