Polish
Tłumaczenie powinno być czytane tak, jakby napisał je człowiek.
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.
Polish
Polish has seven cases, three genders in the singular and a masculine-personal distinction in the plural, which makes agreement one of the hardest parts of localising software into Polish.
Script: Latin · Family: West Slavic
Polish has one, few, many and other plural categories; anything less than four forms is wrong for some counts.
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.
