Default .. take you out to the country...

Unfortunately, I wouldn't stake your ability to communicate on the ability of the computer translators - they are notoriously wrong a large part of the time.

Example, I have an aunt in the US who has a number of mexican students. She bought a translator and had been translating the handouts that were in English into Spanish. She showed me one on the translations she had and asked what I thought of it. The originial English phrase was like:

Please have your son/daughter send 5 dollars as we will be going on a field trip on Monday.

The translated version was like:

Please have your son/daughter send 5 dollars because we will be going to the country to shoot Monday!

Get my drift?

No, there is no program made specifically for Dominican Spanish. However, you can "maybe" get the drift from any of the translator software.

If you were to study a little bit of Spanish, I am sure you would get the hang of it in a short time...
