**********************
Excerpt from "The Shallowness of Google Translate" by DOUGLAS HOFSTADTER.
To me, the word “translation” exudes a mysterious and evocative aura. It denotes a profoundly human art form that graciously carries clear ideas in Language A into clear ideas in Language B, and the bridging act not only should maintain clarity, but also should give a sense for the flavor, quirks, and idiosyncrasies of the writing style of the original author.
Straying from that objective could be construed as the work of a writer or poet without original ideas.
