As someone who finds herself relying upon Google translate to communicate with Arabic speakers, I am both impressed and maddened by some of its translations.
On the one hand, that it works at all, is pretty awesome. On the other, I get things like “tomorrow, on the occasion of the fever, go to collect the cherub in its descent” – which I think means, to celebrate Eid shall we go for a stroll…

Interestingly, “ngeru” in maori is “cat”, “ngeru ngeru” is “cats”, but “ngerungeru” is “panic”.
