Oh, never mind. I misunderstood this quote "For example (and here is a hint!), our awesome translation algorithm includes the following three mappings: 'a' -> 'y', 'o' -> 'e', and 'z' -> 'q'. This means that "a zoo" will become "y qee"."
'o' in english maps to 'e'in googlerese. and in the example, we discover that 'o' in googlerese (not in english!) maps to 'k' in english!
