We would like to suggest a great new tool our translators are already using.
Phras.in is a web based tool that takes alternative versions of a phrase, run them both through a web search and compare the results, highlighting which one is the most popular and commonly used, leveraging the assumption that the crowd knows how to write a sentence properly.
Comparing the web popularity of a sentence might be really helpful for proofreaders or people who write in English as a second language trying to determine which phrase is the best fit for the context. It’s much quicker and convenient than checking the two phrases separately using Google and the request can be done just typing http://phras.in/phrase number one/phrase number two’ in the address bar, in one shot.
