Political Factoid

Be careful who is
translating for you:*
  • Internet sites
  • Politicians
  • Smartphone apps,
  • etc.
You say:
"Dinner will be served
soon."
Translator says you said:
"And quick eats."
-------
You say:
"We enjoyed our visit
to your country. "
Translator says you said:
"We are glad our stay
is over and can now get
out of town."
-------
You say:
"We want jobs."
Translator says you said:
"We want tax cuts
for the wealthy."
* Especially true in politics.
