Japan has a counting unit of 10,000. In Japanese this is 万 in kanji, written "man" in romaji and pronounced "mahn" The Japanese Yen kanji is 円
When prices are expressed without use of the 万 character they will translate correctly. e.g. 550,000円 will correctly translate to 550,000 yen. However when the same price is expressed with the 万 kanji - which is typical the following error occurs: 55万円 will incorrectly translate to 55 million yen. This error doesn't occur with the Google Translate translate box, but occurs when webpages with prices are translated. I've repeatedly Contribute to a better translation, but even after a year the error has not automatically corrected. Could someone at Google manually correct this important error? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "General" group.
