At my job in Middle East, my British Boss gave me a pdf poster about having some dimensions labeled in INCHES, but in Hindi language (the main language of labour on the ground). I asked him why this word (his google translation for inches) means IN in English? What happened, he input IN in the box, assuming IN as inches, where as IN means like in the water, in the box etc. Hindi doesn't have exact word for INCHES, its always just literal transliteration. My boss said, why would google do this, everybody knows INCHES are written as IN.
