A translative glitch in Google’s translation service wreaked havoc among Armenian Internet users over the weekend, does Google have a subconscious?

Boston / NationalTurk – Google’s online translation service (translate.google.com) had been translating the sentence in Armenian ‘ Ես սիրում եմ հայերին ‘ (I love Armenians) to ‘I love Turkey.’ Google translated the Armenian sentence “I love Armenians” (“Ես սիրում եմ հայերին”) into “I love Turkey” for unspecified reasons.

The prankish mistranslation which caused fury among Armenians was unraveled by a Lebanese Armenian activist named Serouj Baghdassarian only to verified by The Armenian Weekly later.

Google translate error : ‘ I love Armenians ‘ as ‘ I love Turkey ‘

The funny translation glitch issue was resolved and corrected Feb. 19, after an active online campaign launched by Armenian activists who read this report and got as mad as a hornet .The cause of the Google translation error was not mentioned in the report.
