This material is based on a presentation co-authored with Riitta-Liisa Valijärvi for the conference 'Language Futures: Languages in Higher Education Conference 2012' held in Edinburgh on 5 and 6 July 2012.

A talk given by Riitta-Liisa Valijarvi and Eszter Tarsoly at Language Futures: Languages in Higher Education Conference 2012 in Edinburgh 7 July 2012. We discuss the possibilities and pitfalls of Google Translate in the language classroom. The talk contains examples from morphologically complex languages Finnish and Hungarian and our suggestions on how to use Google Translate in teaching and learning languages. We are in the process of writing an academic paper about the topic.
