I was sooooo excited to receive the Franklin TG-450 12 Language Translator, that as soon as it came in the mail, I immediately opened it and followed the instructions to begin using this language translator. Boy was I surprised when NONE of the words of phrases I typed in the translator to be translated from English to German were in there! Simple words like eat, bathroom, dog, cat.... you know, the things we need to find our way in another country! Well, needless to say, I returned the product the very next day and I guess I will be going to Germany without a language translator--wish me luck!
