−	''~~<span style=~~"~~color:red;~~"~~>No additional information</span>~~''	+	This takes the '''English''' string ''Text'' and attempts a conversion to an equivalent phrase in the users native language. The dictionary searches are exact (minus punctuation and case) - there is no predictive or fuzzy logic applied in order to translate. This means results stay fast and accurate.
		+
		+
		+	If the English phrase is not found in the dictionary then it will be returned as the result.
		+
		+
		+	The ''Hint'' is used in cases where an English phrase is ambiguous - "Bark" for example may refer to bark of a tree or the sound a dog makes. In this case supplying the ''Hint'' as "dog" or "tree" helps resolve ambiguity. Hints are not case sensitive and by convention are always one word. Not all phrases have a hint 9most will not) as these are only required where a phrase can have different English meanings.
		+
		+
		+	By convention Flowcode uses Americanised English, so "color" not "colour".
