      English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

              They speak like Yoda does! At least when it's directly translated. Yeah, makes sense a whole lot it doesn't!

                English speakers (and Germans, for that matter) have a really hard time with some of the other languages due to the fact that they do not, as a general rule, follow the "subject verb object" construction rules that we do.

                We say:

                "The boy walked down the street."

                Which breaks down to:

                BOY (subject) WALKED (verb) STREET (object)

                In other languages it might be:

                "Down the street walked the boy..."

                Which in English is at the very least "poetic", if not outright wrong. (In this case it's not wrong, but it's easy to see in many instances that it would be!)
                The Internet - where men are men, women are men, and teenage girls are FBI agents!

                I'm the least you could do
                If only life were as easy as you
                I'm the least you could do, oh yeah
                If only life were as easy as you
                I would still get screwed

                  or in Japanese in this case, its actually Subject, Object, Verb.
                  also depending on context the subject and the object may be dropped.

                  So...
                  Boy - street - walked
                  street - walked
                  walked

                  are all grammatically correct in Japanese - yes mising a few grammatical constructs but thats the basics.
                  Translation programs have to not only translate the words, but have to try to work out the context.

                    All indoeuropean languages follow SPO rule (not just English and German). Quite a lot language groups in Asia have SOP order.
