this is such a thing as departments deprioritize language programs: translation software has the hardest time with norms, idioms, situational appropriateness, etc
this is also a really evolving problem in China analysis that I keep meaning to write up; translation software is tremendously useful, but it's also causing big issues with 20-somethings not learning any of the *context* or *norms* of Chinese writing or recognizing errors.
Noting that the senior diplomats of today are probably as skilled as they ever will be historically, as younger diplomats are relying on auto translation software instead of getting practice on government time. More efficient short-term, but going to create some funny menus in the future.
