MACHINE TRANSLATION

I know this will hurt but I have to say it anyway: please DO NOT use machine translation! I am portuguese and I honestly cannot understand 95% of the sentences the machine supposedly translates into portuguese - keep it in "international english" ( a language that our british and american friends have some difficulty understanding but nevertheless is the closest thing to an universal language ).
 
By the way how do you call a person that is able to speak two languages?
 
- Bilingue (int'l english)
 
What do you call someone who is able to speak multiple languages?
 
- Multilingual (int'l english)
 
What do you call someone who is able to speak only one language?
 
- A gringo ( universal english)
 
 
What do you call something that is not able to speak a single language?
 
- A f***g machine ( universal lingo)

We know that the machine translation is really bad.... often it is also funny
To say one in Italian the word "download" is translated with something like "link to the satellite".
 
By the way we are working to a portuguese EasyWebEditor.... we had to pause this project but it is likely we'll restart it soon... stay tuned!
