I may have made some (little) mistakes in the explanation, I didn't write that thing, but nonetheless, it's somehow something like that.
'n Pintje is ook goed hoor! 'k Zal de flauwste niet zijn.
Maar over 't algemeen wordt ondertiteling duur betaald. Ik geloof dat een officiële ondertitelaar €0,50/woord krijgt. (plus nog 21% BTW erover)
Je zou voor minder teksten vertalen.

Some words in English are like that also.Thanks!
Google/Bing etc. are shitty.
I have seen someone writing a paper about online translators, and the biggest problems with them is composed words (in e.g. Dutch or German)
It cuts words, and then looks if the seperate words can be translated. This may cause strange words if the composed word has different meanings!
(Ex. voorkómen v.s. vóórkomen: voorkomen = to prevent, but voor = before/in front of, komen is to come, but vóórkomen is to appear (in court), with the same basic words voor + komen)
I know, confusing.
Voilà! Weer op 'n goed idee gebracht!hmmm... misschien is dat wel een ideetje voor een nieuwe baan.![]()

I was reading an article the other day where the hypothesis was that the languages that had the best chance of staying around for the longest were the ones that were easily translated by the 'engines'. I love the way German sounds - especially sung by Rammstein - but the translations could be a lot better for sure.

And German words can be SOOOOOO long!![]()
But they replace lots of little ones right? (In English I mean)
Er, depends.
With "Immatrikulationsbescheinigung" one talks about (Belgian version!!) the permit that allows a foreigner to stay (live) in Belgium for 3 months.
Edit Piaf zegt: one could translate that one as "immatriculation card"

Half the syllables and 1/13 the words. It wins![]()
