I wonder who have transated the Finnish one that badly. Even google's translation is better than that.

Only this translator can give as bad translations.

Finnish with 14 cases and huge amount of suffixes is extremely hard language for translators ;)

Oh my, that certainly puts a spin on things. For example a simple tongue-twister in English:
"Pick a pack of pickled peppers."
...10 translations later, Yandex gives us:
"In the select packages of pickled peppers."
Worse still. How many have ever built plastic models and wondered if the person writing the instructions was even human, much less fluent in any language?
"Insert Flap A into Slot C keeping Dingus G carefully aligned with Slot C at the same time."
...10 translations later, Yandex gives us:
"The device valve installed in the container C to continue.-announced, in accordance with Alaska C, at the same time."
:? :? :?

Oh my look at this :lol: :lol: :lol:
"Yandex Translator is awful"
...10 translations later, Yandex gives us:
"Google translate is terrible"
This is just to blame google and to show yandex that is the best :evil: :twisted: :lol:

Edit: Look at this
Original text:
""You must not commit adultery""
...43 translations later, Yandex gives us:
"To stay here. "

That's a darn good question! Here is the same instructions after 43 translation iterations:
"Van's tank C-Alaska publishing (c) the device at the same time."
