Which is exactly why i dont rely on it for most translations. It basically
sucks :). I dont know who programs it, but it needs work. It's pretty much
proof machine translation has a LONG way to go ;). 

By the way, does anyone know of a source for a free Gothic Rotunda font
with the secondary form of r and the elongated s (preferably true type for
windows)?

An example of what i'm talking about is found in the Doctrina Christiana
in the word "Christiana"...

Incidentally, the Doctrina Christiana is an interesting document because
it not only contains writing in 16th century Spanish, but it also has  the
baybayin script which was used for Tagalog.
