Hi, I've found the following text on the corporate website of a German company. It seems that it has been translated by a free translation software. What do you think?

The knowledge society is reality today! Today decide the early recognizing of demand trends, the knowledge of new market potentials or improved production procedures as well as the development of innovative innovations increasingly on the competitive ability of enterprises.

Thanks,
Torsten

Hi Torsten

Hehe. It does sound a bit odd, doesn't it? :mrgreen:
How do you like what Frau Google does to that text when you tell her to translate it (back) into German?
