Okay, I'm in need of an online english to japanese translator. But I can't read kanji or hiragana(sp?), so I need the translation to be in english characters. ex. Hello--->Konechiwa

Any help would be appreciated

The problem here, is something written in English and translated word for word into Japanese might become total gibberish.

Automated translation almost always produces comical results for anything but the most simple sentences, but if you insist, you can try Google's language tools Edit: The above post, translated into Japanese and then back into English came out as:

Just a warning: Online translators butcher the language you want to translate up, especially Japanese. Better to just get someone fluent in Japanese to translate, or learn the language yourself.
