Best Multilingual Sites

What are some example sites which serve multi-lingual pages? Do they recognize the browser language request?

There are many multi-lingual sites, but most ask you to choose your language from their home page. Few respond to your browser settings for a preferred language. The best site for responding is Google . Some others who do are Lexicool (home of Lingo glossary tool, in English, French, Italian, and Spanish), Alis Technologies (French and English), and planetarySales (in English, German, and Japanese).
An Apache 2.0 web server default installation supports several languages. Your browser must be set to a non-English language to see these work.
