Why is there not a better translator for american to arabic and vice versa? Wouldnt having better ways of...?

Question

communication with arabic speaking people allow the general public a better understanding of whats going in arabic countrys and such? It would be nice if talking to someone who can only type arabic was alot easyer then it is now with the awful translators for civilian use. I can hardly put together an understandable 3 word phraze with the best translators I have found on the net.

Answer 1

Its not as simple as putting in a word, and getting exactly what it means out. Many words in either English or Arabic have meanings which cannot be expressed easily or fluently in the other, which makes it difficult for translators to translate while making sense
