Knowing French is irrelevant to the question

If I put:

add

into Google Translate I get:

ajouter

However If I put:

'fake, add, word'

into translate.google I get

'faux, add, mot'

Why should two commas make that much difference that it would not translate?

Interestingly putting

fake. add. word

gives you:

faux. ajouter. mot

I'm guessing because Google interprets 'fake, add, word' to be a sentence and "add" doesn't make sense when it tries to interpret it, so it just leaves it as "add". Just a guess though. – Ivan Mar 7 '12 at 22:18
right** not write. Specifically my question matches the FAQ under - "algorithm and data structure concepts" and "quality assurance" Oh well. – Blundell Mar 7 '12 at 22:49
