Furthermore, the accuracy is constantly improving. Thus Google Translate is usually better in languages to and from English, where more such content is available, or for languages with similar word order and structure. The greater the volume of content, the more accurate it becomes. The accuracy of machine translation is dependent on the amount of language content compared.

Google Translate, Multi-Purpose DictionaryĬomputer-based translation technology, such as Google Translate, relies on comparing massive quantities of language content between pairs of languages, in order to establish patterns, or the probability that certain words or phrases in one language will correspond to some other set of words and phrases in another language. In particular I owe a big debt of gratitude to Google, Google Translate and Google Text to Speech, both of which are a big part of my language learning. Many didn’t wait for the facts to filter in before seizing it.The fact that I was able to make meaningful progress in languages as different as Russian, Korean, Portuguese, Romanian and Greek, as well as Arabic and Persian, is the result of modern information technology. The terrorist attack on Israel was an opportunity for those averse to moral complexity to let their freak flags fly. At New York magazine, Eric Levitz has an excellent survey of moral idiocy on the left.

If you look around American politics, you can see the early stages - and in select cases not so early - of the kind of moral, social and intellectual deterioration that first imagines, and later gleefully invites, atrocity. It’s not a terribly long distance from eye for an eye to baby for a baby. No doubt some foes of Hamas will now rejoice at the sight of Palestinian babies blown to smithereens in retaliation. It was an acquired habit, the result of a process of moral dulling and rage sharpening. The Hamas terrorists who murdered babies in their cribs last week weren’t stamped with pathological hatred at birth.

It took years of conditioning, via propaganda, and then steady practice, via party and state brutality, to shed their humanity and become a nation of functional sociopaths. Germans did not become Jew killers in a day.
