Its not a Bug free widget, granted. Still, it might help if you restart that widget. Click once on it, then AppleKey+R. You'll see it do a twirl, and hopefully all will be well again.

Trash the translator plist. Same thing happened to me a few weeks ago.

That's cool! I think I knew about cmd-R, but I had forgotten about it.
