Let’s start with something funny: machine translation fails

See this owl above, the shocked stare? Well, that’s exactly the face you will make when you will read these funny machine-translation fails…

Enjoy  ↓

🍪 “Cookies” translated into “Biscuits” in French. Technically not wrong you’d say, but this was in the data protection section of the website… A biscuit policy sounds delectable, sure.

💨 Guess how Google Translate dealt with “1 agua con gas” translated into French?
“1 gaz”. Which can be understood as 1 fart. Great. The client would have adored being served a fart alongside their lunch.

If you want to read more of those, I’d recommend this article by Babbel! And I will, of course, regularly post more.
Until then, take care!
