No program can give you a complete translation, and the texts are usually screwed up due to lack of language understanding. Translating words does not mean that the meaning of the words are translated. Try running "Jommen sa jeg smør!" through the program and see if you can understand what was meant from the English translation. If you have not received assistance yet, ship it over.
