International Cat Day - Wikipedia[^]
So, if you have an International Cat, celebrate it!
Our's doesn't like to go international: it would take him far, far too long to scent mark every single damn thing he passed on the way ...

Species, like so many things, are only social constructs now. In some places they probably are already passing laws to make it a crime to wrongly assume someone's species.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Only if you take your completely irrelevant random lines on some map. You have no idea how many cat nations there are in your neighborhood alone. Invasions and border incidents happen every day. The Kingdom of Pussy against the Fred Alliance, Felix the Conqueror has just defeated Bill the Sleepy and now has access to new hunting grounds and the Fortress of Evil where they have locked up Lady Gina. Meanwhile, feral cats have set up a communist utopia in a nearby park and prepare to liberate all others from all oppressors...

Gmail keeps translating my messages to English. Does it without me asking, and overwriting old email with autosave.
Moving to proton-mail; but hate to write someone in Dutch and sending them English. Isn't there a setting that says "accept superior languages as is"?
Why da F did Google decided I want to reply in English for a contact that always writes in Dutch, and whom I reply to in Dutch? No option to retain < pre > either. How is that too complicated? What idiot decided to translate my messages (no Chrome), without my permission or even request?

I see google addressed the bug the same way most devs wish they could handle all reports from lUsers.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Also, I didn't see the menu the way the post said I would.
I saw this menu only when I selected the ellipsis[^]...
Also note that there is a choice for [original message] -- maybe that gets you back to your original language message??

Yup; if I write a new email that option suddenly there, and new mails suddenly translated. Already deleted the original. Not writing again either.
The UX guide is ancient, but Google knows better; knows even what language we should use, despite a conversation in native; I bloody impressed about their AI.
So, I'm moving to Proton Mail. But "not invented here" is a valid argument

And it still auto translating the thread; in Edge, even. Gmail thinks I have trouble with my native language.
I'm not afraid of AI; Google keeps proving me not to be.

Following instructions doesn't disable it. I never liked being a tester.
Icle.
The scandals about privacy didn't bother me. Not buggered about the ads. Translating without undo did it. It took me several hours to gather courage for that one mail. And Google does this trick suddenly, refusing to revert changes.
Not going to send in English. I sound like a psychopath enough. Don't need Google to translate my messages to make that point.

Open a Dutch to English translation service. Send yourself massive Dutch texts; Google gets to pay for the translations that you bill out.

I know how to Google. The top 10 answers don't work; why you think I asked here?
Thank you for the bloody suggestion sunshine. After 20+ years of development, a "simple search" is the answer. Brilliant. I will have to propose you for a No Bell price. Your advice was free, but I still want my money back.

I never used it directly from the web...
I always used it via Outlook... wouldn't connecting it to a mail client solve the issue?
I know this is not a "real" solution like "this deactivates that stupid behavior" but...
A pity when those things happen.

I'm starting to agree with your idea; I might just do that, if I cannot come up with a better idea
