Re: Bing translator
I should train my French, I've forgotten the little I learned long ago.
I tried to translate "Kaunisto" to English on Bing. It detected it to be Finnish, but gave only "K" for answer.

Re: Bing translator
I guess Bing beat Google on that one. Google didn't even detect the correct language for Kaunisto.
What does Kaunisto mean in English?

Re: Bing translator
I tried it exactly because it won't translate well. The -sto ending generally means place or area (or group of the things referred).
The closest translation I can think would be "beautiful place".
