+# translator - Easy translation of strings in LaTeX
+
+The translator package is a LaTeX package that provides a flexible
+mechanism for translating individual words into different languages. For
+example, it can be used to translate a word like figure into, say, the
+German word Abbildung. Such a translation mechanism is useful when the
+author of some package would like to localize the package such that
+texts are correctly translated into the language preferred by the user.
+The translator package is not intended to be used to automatically
+translate more than a few words.
