I don't speak a second language so Google is my primary port of call for simple tasks.
I offer it as a back up plan to make sure anyone who is offered a phrase can make sure it is what they are after, I should know, the amount of times I asked a polish guy how to say something and I would ask one of the women in the office the same question and the answer would be drastically different and normally the man had given me a curse phrase instead of a question I had asked out of curiosity.
I know google to not be the best as I have translated to European languages back to English and scratched my head at the results, so if the return trip is dubious, I dare not guess how accurate the German French or Spanish might be.
It has been said that to use it for Korean it is best to go via Japanese as the vocabulary is stronger than English to Korean direct and Japanese shares a lot of grammar to Korean.
So someone wanted a post translated, was offering cash, I suggested parsing it through google before handing over any money to make sure they were not paying for a lasagne recipe.
I was not going to do it as I wouldn't be able to do anything other than throw it through google, but I did the first paragraph to and from Korean.
Came out a bit borked at the end, tried the Japanese approach and got this
Won home sex life improvement of Poland, wow there is a medal for that?
