About eTranslation
eTranslation is a machine translation service provided by the European Commission. It is not an open web page: you register first, and access is granted after that, which keeps use tied to identified organisations.
Evidence 1
Sources were opened and read on the date of the check. Registers and websites change; if one of these no longer says what we cite it for, tell us.
