Abstract
Machine translation is a powerful tool that is becoming ever more useful with the constant development of linguistics theory together with the practical applications of computational linguistics. Regardless of the highly advanced software, there are limitations that will always be present when a computer software renders a translation of a natural language. Mainly, these limitations are primarily related to pragmatics. A machine translator still cannot process problems of ambiguity, syntactic as well as semantic ones, and even when its corpus contains all the multiple translations of a certain word or phrase, it cannot decide on the proper equivalent in the given context. (Pritchard, 2002: 2) The phenomenon of polysemy, or multiple meanings, represents one of the problems that machine translators still fail to overcome, albeit, of course, it is not the only one. This work looks at examples of such machine translations of text examples from various text genres, namely texts from journalistic, medical, legal genres, and dictionary definitions.
