Hi Jeff and everyone,

Google Translate works pretty well in Welsh, I'd reckon 80%ish, I used 
it on Firefox Monitor this morning and I'm happy. :-)

Some issues:

1. It produces a code (&#39;) when there should be an apostrophe

Mae eich cyfrineiriau&#39;n gwarchod mwy na'ch cyfrifon. / Mae eich 
cyfrineiriau'n gwarchod mwy na'ch cyfrifon.

Google Translate does this in Poedit as well, though I've not noticed 
this on the Google Translate website. Does this, does this os something 
similar occur in other languages? Any chance of stopping this?

2. Terminology - it would be useful to be able to stipulate certain terms.

Otherwise, pretty good.

Rhos
