I’ve always been curious about why the hell stuff on r/googletranslate comes to be. Sometimes glitches from the translator are so bad that they don’t even match up. You can just type in random letters, and the translator would come up with something random.
Here are some examples of what I’m asking about. Here is probably one of my favorite videos: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-rfBsWmo0M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-rfBsWmo0M)

So, how the hell does this even happen? I’ve genuinely been thinking about this a lot.

One thing that tends to cause errors is syntax. Not all languages put sentences together in the same format, per se. If the order of a sentence is completely different between languages, some things can become jumbled or lost in translation.
