"Try it. It's free. (English to German)
Versuchen Sie es. Es ist frei. (German to French)
Essayez-le. Il est libre. (French to English)
Test it. It is free.
Essayez-le. Il est libre. (French to English)
Test it. It is free."
And this is a good example of why you need a translator to check and correct
what comes out at the end ... "libre" in French does indeed mean "free" but
free in the sense of "unoccupied" and not in the sense of "at no cost".
