    @jfmezei Or it's targeting a very, very specific, neglected market segment 🙃

          So did ai do the translating? I can see it not realizing if English keep babies on Boards why wouldn't the French keep them under tables?

          That should be all we need to know to stop using it.

          @Crystal_Fish_Caves @jfmezei more likely Anglophones who couldn't be bothered to hire a translator and thought they knew what they were doing. this happens with Ottawa municipal stuff all the time. our city is right next to Quebec, a whole province of French speaking people, and la Ville de Gatineau is just across the river, but hire someone to get French phrasing correct? nah, who would do that.

              @jfmezei I don't speak French but this seems a tad too literal?

                @atkelar yep. Translated “board” as “blackboard” instead of expression “on board”. (Having boarded a vehicle).

                    @jfmezei Grown-ups are less vulnerable, so collisions are OK for them. "No baby on board: let's race to the next red light and have fun!"
