14:17 Jun 6, 2014	Piero Intonti: 679522	All	No, in my experience and related to the particular linguistical combination, the
14:17 Jun 6, 2014	Thanh Ha Ngo: 825574	All	as MT could not distinguish the contexts

14:22 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	And who are going to Pisa?

14:24 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	MT is good if we have a positive mindset
14:25 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	I agree César!
