What makes you say it doesn't?  I find Babelfish translations from a 
foreign language are easier to understand if I'm familiar with the 
source language as well as the target.  The boxed representation of a 
long tacit verb that J comes back with is also a help (I saw the series 
of embedded each'es when I did that.)
