Yes, it's a conspiracy. Google hates the Persians, and Arabs hate Persians, so they conspire to have "Persian Gulf" be rendered to "Gulf"!
They have a three-step plan: 1. Persian Gulf shortened to just "Gulf" 2. ??? 3. Profit!! And the end of everything Persian!! Or maybe not. If you look up how the translator works, you will see why this happens all the time. It's statistical translation. No human decides the individual translation of a phrase, it is done through statistics. If you look through the archives of this group, you will also find hordes of Irish, Turks and Arabs also complain that Google conspires to deny them their deserved national glory. So sorry for being snappy, but nationalists jumping to conclusions annoy me. I am not associated with Google in any way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "General" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
