nonolingo vs google translate for work messages
"anh ơi deadline gấp quá" went into google translate and came out as "brother, the deadline is too urgent."
Brother, the deadline is too urgent, I'm afraid I can't make it.This deadline is tight. Any chance we could push it to Friday?

google translate is one of the most useful free tools ever made. for reading a foreign menu, a contract, a message in a language you don't know, it is hard to beat. writing work messages is a different job: the words come out right, the tone often doesn't, and you pay for it in tabs.
