Google is an amazing tool to use when looking for something like this. Google has Google Translate.

here is a code example you will need to alter it to work for what it is you are doing.

public static string Translate(string input, string languagePair, Encoding encoding)
{
string url = String.Format("http://www.google.com/translate_t?hl=en&ie=UTF8&text={0}&langpair={1}", input, languagePair);

string result = String.Empty;

using (WebClient webClient = new WebClient())
{
webClient.Encoding = encoding;
result = webClient.DownloadString(url);
}

HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(result);
return doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//textarea[@name='utrans']").InnerText;
}
