I was browsing the internet and found this site.

It is in Greek. The interesting part is that it "is translated" in many languages. When I clicked the Romanian flag, google translate opened and then I got the site in something that looks like Romanian.

I know google chrome has the option to translate the website into different languages via google translate. I turned off this function. But how could one voluntarily choose to translate the webpage that represents his/her company via google translate?

I see now. Thank you, Stanislaw, for the link.

I won't use google translate for my webpage, obviously. I started this forum because I found it weird that people do actually use this feature. It could become usual in a while.

Have a nice day!
