Well, duh. But bad grammar Spanish is better than no Spanish at all, and, let's face it, no one was about to translate it personally.[/QUOTE]
After only four hours you come to this conclusion? And come on, using an internet translator implies that you think she is too stupid to do so herself, which is insulting.[/QUOTE]
Umm, excuse me? I wouldn't have the first idea of whether or not she could do it herself, but I assume she either can't or doesn't have the time to or something, because otherwise it would be quite unlikely that she would ask us to do it for her. And, for your information, online translators may suck, but if you think about it, when other people who are just learning to speak our language don't know very much about grammar we can still understand perfectly well what they're saying, so how is this in any way different? And I was just posting that because no one had posted yet and I figured if someone who could do it better came along, they would do it too, thus my post would cause no damage, but apparently what I posted didn't get that message across. I suppose what I implied was that I knew everything and that my translation would be 100% accurate and that I would scratch your eyes out if you tried to do it yourself.

The real problem is that you only posted the translation. You didn't say that it was from a translator.
If I were quickly scanning it - yeah, it looks like Spanish, maybe I or someone else wouldn't have bothered to try a "real" translation.
And this is for an organisation - not her wanting to know how to say, "Soy estupida y no hablo español - ¿Hablas ingles? Y dónde está el baño?" - it should have DECENT grammar.
And trust me, translators can murder things beyond understanding... It's a popular game on some forums - you translate to a language and translate back and it's so funny-haha because it makes no sense at all.

Oh, whoops. I originally had that at the very beginning of my translation, but I suppose I deleted it accidentally.

I was learning me some Spanish last night and realised that the grammatical conventions are murder.
