When you’re cruising the web and you land on a web page in a foreign language, Google Chrome identifies the language and offers to translate. The translations are word-for-word, which often makes for some interesting sentences, and occasionally some that are almost incomprehensible.
The picture and caption below were in an article about wedding traditions from a Syrian newspaper’s website.
Wooden box inlaid with mother of the bride is placed in a room and used to store clothing
I would love to know if this is a mistake in the translation, in the original Arabic, or whether this is how a Syrian mother-in-law infiltrates the home.
The original was in http://www.aksalser.com/.
