i know the term "jap" was used as a racist term so if i use it please do not take offnse as that's not what is intended. i shorten alot of words to save time. i try to make a concerted effort to use jp instead of jap, but my habit of just shortening a word to a few letters is just a bad habbit. is someone asks me where i live i say miss not ms(mississippi). it's not intentional, but just the way i am. i think alot of use use the word just as shorthand without actually meaning anything rude by it. well let me say if and when i do it i do not mean anything rude at all.

i do agree though that auto-translate needs to be more than what it is now.
