Deadly MT

I often run legal boilerplate (with all specifics of the case removed) through DeepL as a preliminary measure. Today’s experiment was from an alimony contract. And I’m pretty sure the person who signed it didn’t intend to agree to this:

Because of the fulfilment of the obligations arising from this document, I submit myself to immediate execution.

(Wegen der Erfüllung der Verbindlichkeiten aus dieser Urkunde unterwerfe ich mich der sofortigen Zwangsvollstreckung.)

    I’m heartened that DeepL made this mistake. The machines are still far from replacing us.
