I want to watch a warm human love triangle



Are you in "Awwwwwwww" overload yet? These two little guys were both orphaned last month and adopted by the Izaki City Zoo in Fukuchiyama. They've since become fast friends. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Here's the article:
福知山市猪崎の市動物園(二本松俊邦園長)にいる赤ちゃんニホンザルとイノシシの子・ウリボウが、奇妙な友情を育んでいる。2匹は互いに生後1カ月のころ、自然界で親と離れて保護された境遇が重なっている。ゲージから出すと、すり寄って仲むつまじい姿を見せる。
 
ニホンザルは親と死に別れ、ウリボウは1匹で溝にはまっていたところを救出された。2匹とも1カ月ほど前から動物園にいる。ともに愛敬があり、約1週間前に試しに近づけてみたところ意気投合したという。
 
二本松園長は「自然界では親同士が警戒するけど、2匹は飼育員が親だと思っているのかもしれませんね。当面はサル、イノシシ、人の温かい三角関係を見守っていきたい」と話している。

or as Google would have it...
Fukuchiyama 猪崎 City Zoo (Principal Kuni Takashi Nihonmatsu) is the son of Uri bow baby monkeys and wild boar, and has fostered a strange friendship. Two cats each other around the first month of life, protected circumstances are overlapping in nature away from their parents. And out of the gauge, harmonious snuck show up.

The monkey's death parents, Beau was rescued but Uri was in a rut in the dog. The zoo has about a month ago with two dogs. There is both love and respect that I just hit it off close to the test in about a week ago.

Nihonmatsu Principal said, "but naturally wary of each other parents, two dogs that I think might be the parent keeper. Meantime monkeys, wild boar, I want to watch a warm human love triangle" and said.

why does Google even bother?? Machine translation sucks even with languages that are similar. The monkey himself could have done as good a job, I think.

If they don't try though it'll never get any better.

You are right. I left a blithe and snarky comment about something that smart people are working hard to improve for the benefit of ignoramuses like me who can't read any language but their own well. When you made me think about it I began to see how much knowledge of language and computers writing a good machine translation app would require. Thank you, Google.
