How is it a bad translation? I was headed to the comments with the intention of applauding Google for a truly incredible translation service! Reading that wasn't blocky or painful, like reading programatically translated texts used to be. Is the idea of what is said wrong? Did they make a huge mistake in any section? Or small mistakes everywhere?
As already commented, "did an about-face" is an English idiom
- gizzlon 14y agoI'm not GP, but I also though "about-face" was an error. I'm impressed as well, but there are errors like: "e-bokgiganten" (the e-book giant), "type IT consultant Linn.." (wrote the IT consultant..) and I don't think "Spread Monday blog post" is correct either? (On Monday the blog-post about .. spread) etc.. Still impressive though :)
- sukuriant 14y agoAh yes. I saw a few of those too. It's certainly not perfect. I actually skimmed the article rather than reading the details; and I was honestly impressed that I could skim the article.
