Does Google Translator translate English into classical or ecclesiastical Latin?

I'm translating a text into Latin, and I was planning on using Google Translator to help run a few clauses, but I wanted to see if it was classical Latin (like that of Virgil's writing) or ecclesiastical Latin (like Jerome's Vulgate Bible) that Google translated English into.


Thank you, kindly.|||ROFLMAO!!





Nick was much too kind to Google. Although better than other online translators, it STILL turns out garbage. It is amazing how many come on Y!A and call it the best thing since sliced bread - they must not really care. That having been said [note the ablative absolute construction transposed to English], Google tries to do Classical. Just don't trust it - no time, no how.|||It attempts to produce classical Latin, but it comes out as junk. Don't trust it!
