Good free English to Tagalog online translator?

Is there a good free online computer translator to translate from English to Tagalog, and from Tagalog to English? I have two very good college friends who speak English but their parents’ English is a little shaky, and I wanted to email the parents (whom I have had many interactions with) short notes in Tagalog so they could better understand. Thanks!

sad to say, i tried testing english-tagalog computer translators and they weren’t good enough. they don’t give sense at all. most translations are very misleading and will only result to more confusion. i think it would be best for your two filipino college friends or an online filipino buddy to translate it for you . or just write to them in english. most (if not all) filipinos were taught with english from kindergarten to college so it’s very hard to think that they can’t understand short notes written in english.
