Another Google Translate user here. Remember that the Lithuanian option is not just for you. It is also for people wanting to get an idea what's in Lithuanian blogs, newspapers etc. The translation is not the best Google Translate has to offer, but it's far better than nothing. Untranslated Lithuanian might as well be Chinese for me. Your language can not possibly be hurt by anything Google does to it. Whether you are hurt depends on you, but I maintain it is very silly to be offended by poor machine translations. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "General" group.
