differences between translators? #258

Hi, could there be a wiki page detailing the differences between the translators? I'm happy with the default Google translator, but it would be nice to see how the others compare.

IMHO, it depends on translation phrase/word. I.e. Yandex Translate (and also Google Translate as I know) use machine learning for generating best translation (which consider context of phrase) and quality very different from phrase to phrase. What do you exactly mean?

I'm looking for reasons to use a translator other than Google Translate, which right now beats everything else just based on speed.
