Example output produced by the vizvuz Engine and cached — not a hand-written translation.
German
German compounds nouns into single words and puts finite verbs at the end of subordinate clauses, so translated strings run roughly ten to thirty-five per cent longer than the English source.
Script: Latin · Family: West Germanic
Compound nouns overflow narrow buttons and table headers; test the German build at your smallest breakpoint before release.
Estonian
Estonian has fourteen cases and no grammatical gender or future tense, so English sentences about future events are usually rendered with the present tense plus an adverb.
Script: Latin · Family: Finnic
Case endings attach directly to the noun, so interpolating a value into a fixed sentence frame produces ungrammatical output.
Formality in this pair
Teie is the formal plural address; Estonian business writing uses it far more consistently than Finnish does.
