Aww, at first I thought the feature was going to be "find a sentence in a certain language that isn't linked to another of a certain language". That would be a lot more useful. Because for most of the ones that come up with a tool there actually is a translation of the desired language, it's just not *direct*.

Merci TRANG, for all your hard work on the site.

I can't edit translation? I make myself owner of a sentence, edit the false English translation to make it better, but it reverts to the previous translation. Am I missing a step here?

I think it's best to use the informal. The formal in German is dying out, especially among the young generation. I'd say it's mostly young people who are using this site, anyway.

Maybe it could be decided on by sentence. Like "Hey, let's go to the movies" would be informal because you're rarely going to say that to someone you don't know, and "I'd like to have a talk with you about my salary" would be formal, because it's in a business situation.
