I want an online website that I can just type in a sentence or maby even a paragraph and it will translate it to English. Please help!|||Flat answer - there is no such thing. They are all essentially worthless for anything. None of the translators for Latin on line give anything close to a decent translation going either way. There are too many instances where you must know the context before choosing one of the four or five possible word choices. Other problems seem to arise from the high degree of inflection in Latin - the translators just do not seem to get case and number right, and the verbs are just as bad, especially the subjunctive. Seems like the translators assume all is indicative, first person singular. This is probably compounded by Latin's lack of fixed word order.
The net result is you get a bunch of nouns and verbs that may or may not be in context, and you still don't know who did what with which to whom when.
Single word translators which show you several possible choices for one word work. One of the best of those is:
