The European Word Translator is a map and translation tool created by UK Data Explorer. Type a word or phrase into the map’s search tool and the translations appear over the countries in their respective official languages.

Applications for Education
Before you  use the European Word Translator in your classroom you should be aware that it does rely on the Google Translate API. Google Translate is known to have some errors (some of my favorite errors occur when translating Icelandic into English).  That said, the map offers a neat way to get some geographic context for languages.
