The only problem google translate or any online one, is that the interpretation is done out of sorts. Example, a phrase may be said like this in a foreign language. The dog chased the cat (this is how it is received, if translated into English it can sometimes come out like this. The chased dog the cat. Weird I know. Because of the inflections and tones set the context. The program does not know how to work this out, yet.

....could be that the program has not been programmed to incorporate a self-referential syntax symbolizing an "I am the translator" algorithm
(right HAL, of 2001 A Space Oddesy fame)?....

Answers HAL "Speaking for myself human, I am omnipresent, and I know where all the airlocks are. Translate that!"

Just a little HAL translator humor.....
