My wife speaks Bemba - a fairly common language in South-central Africa. I just asked it to translate a sentence to Bemba and it failed miserably. What it put out wasn't even Bemba, she didn't know what language it was.

I guess is it common on the internet? Pali is widely translated and referred to and available (in the Buddhist canon, the original Buddhist teaches were first written in Pali and so it’s widely studied ala Latin). I was impressed but not surprised it was able to do it.
