Shouldn't it be "I HAVE the sun?"
If it's I had the sun, the name contridicts the game entirely!

translators never translate things 100% for you, I noticed that alot with writting french reports, you would do it in english cause it was easier to think of ideas like that, put it through one of those, and then have to go back through and correct 70% of it. was still faster than writting it yourself though.

I used to use translators for Spanish and then hoped to god that it made some kind of sense to my teacher.

Online translators don't take grammar into account when translating.

Also... you had sex with Sol?

I think it says that because it doesn't take into account the changes in the rules of grammar for each language, such as I before E.

Yeah. Translation via a simple Turing-complete algorithm can never be perfect, due to synonyms, grammar, and other things that would require human interpretation. Most lines could be read many different ways, and in order to translate from the structure of one language to another, you'd need to know the exact meaning of the sentence instead of just the words which leave some ambiguity. All Google can do is pretty much translate word for word, and that's not going to be perfect.
