Chat GPT and "Zij is thuis van een wolk van een zoon bevallen"
May 11th 2023ChatGPT can certainly do a good job of translating, as least some, very difficult phrases. It has no problem with the phrase that I have used to test most translators.
Me:
What does "Zij is thuis van een wolk van een zoon bevallen" mean?
ChatGPT:
The sentence "Zij is thuis van een wolk van een zoon bevallen" is Dutch and it roughly translates to "She gave birth at home to a cloud of a son" in English.
In this context, the phrase "een wolk van een zoon" is an idiomatic expression that is used to describe a baby or a child who is extremely adorable, lovely, or delightful. It conveys the idea that the child is like a beautiful, fluffy cloud. The sentence implies that the birth took place at home, emphasizing the mother's comfort and possibly a positive birthing experience.
Bard refused to try to translate this sentence. It is also not available from the Netherlands, so those 2 things may be connected.
