If you can read French can you help me out please?

Can someone who can read French tell me what this says? I'm particularly interested in the "Localite" and the "Habitat" sections. I would really appreciate any help here. Thanks.

I don't know how accurate it was -- I used Google's tranlation tools at translate.google.com: http://translate.google.com

Gardenwife,
Thanks so much. I never have the patience to try to figure out the google translating thing. It sounds simple. I think I've used it once before. I'll have to check it out judging by how easy you have made it look. I'm trying to find this plant so I need to send as much info to this person in Guyana as I can so he can help me with this if he can. I'll have you to thank too for helping translate this if we have any luck.

There's nothing like a good hunt, eh?! Sounds fun!

About the translator, just go there and paste the text you want to translate into the top box, then click the drop-down menu below and select which language FROM and TO you're translating, and go from there. It did put fleur and fruit, even after translating it, but I figured that meant flower and fruit.

I want to know the link of Translator please. It is really interesteing.

Good guess Gardenwife. Fleur-fruit... A good hunt? You can say that again. I've been at it. Finally, some hope. We'll see what turns up. Thanks for the info on the translator. I will have to keep it in mind for trying to communicate with other groups where they only speak something other than English. I'm sure it will come in handly.

I didn't make it a clickable link above; sorry about that. It's translate.google.com: http://translate.google.com I've fixed the URL above so it will click through, too.

You can also get to it from Google's homepage by clicking the "Language Tools" link to the right of the search box.

Thank you very much for guidence.

BugFreak, I have been studying Spanish and found a great site for translation. Go to--WWW.Babelfish.altavista.com.
You can translate about 10 languages. When I log on, i open Babelfish then minimize and it is always there. Try it.

Thanks prcastle. I'll have to save it to my favorites.

Babelfish is great; sometimes it has trouble with French. Many of the posts at TrekLens.com, TrekNature.com and TrekEarth.com are in French, and it has a hard time with some of them.

Thanks agian GW. I'll have to remember to use it for other languages. I try to trade with people from all over.

It's good to try multiple online translators and see if they've got similar results.
