Hi

Does anyone know the Chinese equivalent of:

Thanks in advance

In future you can translate yourself by using Babel Fish .

I've tried that, but sometimes the literal translation of the English does not always work.

For example, I used a translation software to do "loading calculation" and when people read it, they thought I wanted to know how to calculate how many boxes I can fit in a truck/cargo container.

What I want is the English term in that discipline with the Chinese equivalent.

It is near impossible to get exactly the meaning translated. Google offers translation but only to Simplified Chinese.
