Sažetak

The paper presents the concept of the Domain Translator (DT) and the example of its implementation for the purpose of web sites internationalization. The majority of Croatian web sites, especially in the domain of academic community, offer only their narrowed versions containing some general information in foreign languages. The users that do not speak Croatian try to cope with this problem by using translators like Google Translate, but only with a limited success, because of various problems, including the loss of local heritage like local names, shortcuts, and appropriate textual context. In the scope of this paper, a Domain Translator in a form of web browser extension was built, as well as the database of lexical artifacts covering an example of faculty web site. Given translations were compared with the corresponding results of the Google Translate and Bing Translator.
