Obamacare's Spanish-Language Site Written Not In Spanish but... Spanglish
— Ace

Of course. The multicultural cosmopolitan Superstars Internationale of the Obama Administration dug into their collective brain-trust of diverse white suburban backgrounds and produced yet another casa de caca.

[T]he translations were so clunky and full of grammatical mistakes that critics say they must have been computer-generated Â— the name of the site itself can literally be read "for the caution of health."
"When you get into the details of the plans, it's not all written in Spanish. It's written in Spanglish, so we end up having to translate it for them," said Adrian Madriz, a health care navigator who helps with enrollment in Miami.
...

There are a lot of Spanish-only speakers in America (el speako de spana) but their sign-up numbers are low.

Many blame at least some of the enrollment problems on the trouble-plagued site.
"In my opinion, the website doesn't work," said Grettl Diaz, a 37-year-old Miami gas station cashier who is originally from Cuba.
...
As for the language, Plaza, the New Mexico professor, said a recent examination by her research students concluded that the translations were done "by a computer-generated process" and came across as awkward.
...
Still, Gabriel Sanchez, a political science professor at the University of New Mexico, said the problems hurt the credibility of federal officials and reinforce the belief held by some that authorities are indifferent to the plight of Latinos.
Sanchez said, "They will look at this, and think, 'Man, they really don't care about us.'"

This is all of a piece with Obama's self-definition as the most cosmopolitan and Internationale of all Presidents, despite not speaking any foreign language apart from "Um."

More on this from Richocet's Professoro de Spanglish, Jon "El Camino" Gabriel.

El Web Sito Obamacare Es Written en Spanglish
Jon Gabriel, Ed. Â· 35 minutes ago
Cuidado
Presidente Obama y su personnel de la White House have launchar un websito del Obamacare en espaÃ±ol. Â“Â¿Viva Obama?Â” Not so fasto.
El sito releasando muchos dÃas late y it is un Disastero Grande, just like el sito InglÃ©s. El Associado Press accusa la AdministracciÃ³n del Obama of using Â“Spanglish, not Spanish.Â” Â¡Que lastima!
TranslaciÃ³ns en la health mercado estan muy crapo y tenga glitchos multiplos...

As reported by the muy importanto Buzzmanga, the White House denies the claim that the website is written in Spanglish, calling such reports "over-torqued" (which they actually then translate as "wrong").

They say computer translations are not responsible for the Spanglish gibberish on the website. No, they proudly say, all the errors and nonsensical constructions were produced by human beings being paid a lot of money by the government.

Well Gracias Dios for that.

15 focusing on this laughable failure will only drive moderates from the GOP. We need to focus on our winning 2008 and 2012 message that "we have nothing to fear from obama" and that "Obama's no evil or corrupt or incompetent but that he just made a few boo boos"

Computer people wrote the site. These computer people were told, probably very late in the process, "Oh by they way, there has to be a Spanish site too." The computer people shrugged, ran the pages through Google Translate, and moved on. No actual language people saw the thing before it went live.

Communication is an art, not a science.

I used to work at a junkyard. One of the sales reps used to speak a sort of junkyard spanglish. The customer would come in looking for parts and the sales rep would say, "Err, el ray-dee-ay-TOR?"

And lo, the customer would say Si!

The keys were to raise your voice and put "el" in front of every English word, and sometimes add an -o at the end, such as el brake-o, and el muff-LER-o. (Stressing certain syllables were a help, too.)

Point is, if you want to reach certain people, e.g., dumb people, you speak-a their language.

231 Why is there a Spanish site? Oh, no official language, disenfranchisement and racism... right, I forgot. Ok... I'll bite. Obamacare needs to be shut down until there is a dedicated website in every language spoken by anyone in the US. And make sure they include the "Overcharge" button on the Russian version.

Posted by: Damiano at January 14, 2014 11:39 AM (j0wOO)

232 This isn't that hard to believe, to be honest. I mean, they didn't even bother to build in any security or a payment function on a website that was supposed to handle highly sensitive information and accept payments. And we were expecting they'd bother using actual competent translators on the non-English portions of the portal? We're just lucky they hired that hobo with the lazy eye to proof the English parts of the site!

Heh. I took a semester of Spanish in college to fulfill a gen ed requirement. We had to test-in to see which level we'd start in -- intro or advanced. I managed to eat some kind of food that contained traces of peanut RIGHT before the exam, so I took the damn thing while in the midst of a not-quite-dying-but-pretty-close-to-it anaphylactic attack. It kind of sucked.

I managed to get into the advanced class, though, so there's that. I like to think that, if my brain hadn't been starved for oxygen, I might have done better. And also not given the poor proctor a fricking heart attack over the poor girl with the swollen face and bloodshot eyes in the front row.

327 reinforce the belief held by some that authorities are indifferent to the plight of Latinos No, you're wrong about that. They're not indifferent to the plight of Latinos, they're indifferent to the plight of people not them, which is a superset that include a bunch of different people.
