Turkish
Bir çeviri, sanki bir insan yazmış gibi okunmalıdır.
American English
A translation should read as if a person wrote it.
Example output produced by the vizvuz Engine and cached — not a hand-written translation.
Turkish
Turkish is agglutinative with vowel harmony and no grammatical gender, and it uses subject-object-verb order, so the English sentence structure has to be rebuilt rather than mapped.
Script: Latin · Family: Turkic
Turkish has a dotted and a dotless i; uppercasing i with the default locale produces I instead of İ and corrupts identifiers.
American English
English is the shortest of the supported languages in almost every measurement, which is why interfaces designed in English tend to break when translated into anything else.
Script: Latin · Family: West Germanic
British and American spelling, date order and vocabulary differ enough to matter; choose EN-GB or EN-US explicitly instead of bare EN.
Formality in this pair
American English has no formality distinction to switch, so the formality parameter is accepted and ignored.
