Hilmar;

lol! How true! You can get into trouble very fast with this approach to translation. Sometimes I will place something in Spanish into a translator to be translated into English. It looks like outer space! Grammar, tense and structure become very unique! :) ¡Que pena!

>I have yet to see an automatic translator that produces something even close to an acceptable result. Even for the translation of a simple-looking phrase such as "What the hell is going on here?", into Spanish, the results are a complete disappointment.
