Yet another Update

Example 1

Johnson tested the app with a German colleague. We had the following exchange, both of us speaking our native languages slowly and carefully, pretending that we were trying to reserve a restaurant table. The text at the top is the original language as spoken; the text below is the words Google heard and transcribed in the original language. The third line of text is the translation (which was then synthesised into speech in the target language).

  Me: Good morning, how are you?

  Recognised: Good morning, how are you

  Translated: Guten Morgen, wie geht es Ihnen?

 

  Colleague: Guten Morgen, wie geht es dir?

  Recognised: Guten Morgen, wie geht es dir

  Translated:  Good morning, how are you?

 

Perfect so far. But then:

  Me: I’d like to reserve a table for 4 please

  Recognised: I’d like to reserve a table for 4 please

  Translated: Ich möchte einen Tisch für 4 behalten Sie bitte

 

This is word salad; the German reads something like “I’d like a table for four you keep please”.  Understandable; if you were a willing and friendly restaurant host, you’d get it.
