I wanted a sample of English text that was relatively easy to understand, so I chose this passage from a book for foreign students to study English:
Original English: The Golden Gate Bridge is a beautiful bridge. It is a suspension bridge in San Francisco. The bridge opened in 1937. I then ran the text through the translator three times—once for Simplified Chinese, once for Japanese, once for Korean. I took the results for each language and ran them back through the same translator to translate back to English. These are the results:
Simplified Chinese: The golden yellow gate bridge is one beautiful bridge. This is one aerosol bridge in San Francisco. In 1937 the bridge opened.
Japanese: The gold gate bridge is the beautiful bridge. That is the San Francisco suspension bridge. You opened the bridge in 1937.
Korean: The gold the bridge which it bites is the beautiful bridge. It is the present misfortune bridge inside the San Francisco. The bridge opened at 1937 years.
Probably not the type of results you could live with if you're serious about selling a product or service in a foreign country.
Why do people decide to use a machine translation program instead of using a human translator?
Because it is _________________________ to use a human translator.

M: Sounds so serious. What's up?
W: Well, the landlord just informed me that he's going to increase our rent by two hundred. I'm wondering how you feel about it.
M: How do I feel about it No way! in our tenancy agreement, it says he will have to give us a notice three months in advance if he wants to increase the rent.
W: Yeah, that's right! It's gotta be three months later. Well, I think he realizes his rental fee is below the market rate and he must be feeling a bit ripped off when he could be charging a couple hundred extra. What do you think Sam?
M: Good question. I'm not sure either. The location we're at now is quite convenient. Close to the grocery and near the subway. It'll be hard to find another location like this one.
W: I wonder whether he'll allow room for negotiation. Perhaps a hundred dollars instead of two. Maybe he might be more willing to give a bit if we speak to him right way.
M: Well, be seems to be a nice guy to talk to. But what if be refuses? Would you go for two then?
W: Well, I guess I would, since it'll be hard to find such a convenient location. Besides, It's close to my school-and it's close to my school and I can sleep a little later
M: Ha! I figured that's what you'd be concerned about. Well, I have to give it some serious thought. I'm not sure I can afford to cough up an extra hundred a month just to make sure I can sleep in an extra 15 minutes. W: Didn't you get your loan recently? That'll cover what you need. Besides, if you could just stop spending so much on cafeteria snacks you'd have lots of money to spare.
M: Yeah, but I'm thinking of getting a new laptop.
W: Well, I tell you, there aren't a lot of apartments that are cheaper, even with this new increase.
M: I know, so when does he want us to come back on this?
W: He told me to let him know this weekend.
M: Sure, by then I should be able to make up my mind.
