    Capitalism is doing exactly what it is designed to do. Capital owners are thriving to the detriment of the working class. This system is designed to cater to the wealthy, and it's a massive success in that regard.

    I noticed alot of r/engrish material comes from Chinese. Is Chinese-to-English translation that bad?

    parent
    20 points Sweaty-Let-9924

    As a Chinese, I must say that Chinese and English have so different ways of expression. And English feels like a totally different language. It’s probably harder for us to learn than it is for people from some other countries, who speak German, Spanish, French .etc. . Just like how you guys find Chinese really hard. If someone translates word for word, it can easily cause problems or even sound funny. Unfortunately, many people want to use English for some reason but couldn't translate it accurately or naturally at all :(

    Actually. Being in Shanghai I tried to translate such things as advertising posters and such stuff by Google, to English and to Russian. The both results were usually a weird bunch of words, hardly making sense together.

    Same things happened to me when travelling in France. I used Google to translate some French on a milk bottle in the supermarket to Chinese. And it read "no Internet connection". Imo Google Translate does a decent job only with full sentences, but in informal situations, when there are just single words or short phrases, it can be a disaster, for example with ads or menus. In those cases, I’d rather use ChatGPT.
