This makes me think of something: are nonnative English speakers tempted to use LLMs to correct grammar because mistakes like this actually make the writing unintelligible in their native language? For example, if I swap out the "For" in this sentence for any (?) other preposition, it's still comprehensible. (At|Of|In|By|To|On|With) example, ...
All of them are comprehensible, but are wrong, nobody would use them. If a foreigner use them (the translated version) people will understand them, but it will sound odd. Depending on the context, people will correct it or just go on.
Perhaps "As" or "Like" are better, still not 100% accurate but almost.
"Hoy no comí nada." -> literally "Today [I] did not eat nothing." but should be "Today, I didn't eat anything."
May be confusing, but people may ask for clarifications.

Another problem is that some words have different meaning in each country, like
"I will pick an apple." -> to es-es "Voy a coger una manzana" but in es-ar it means "I will fuck an apple."
May be confusing too, but if you have a strong Spanish accent or American-that-Learned-Spanish-from-Spain accent, people will chuckle and go on.
Strong disagree on author voice. Vomit blows.
I think better to let recipient use full-text translation if that is necessary.
Anyway, the autotranlation saved a lot of time for the most common words and switching the noun-adjetive order.
Also writing a draft in Google Docs and accepting most [2] of the corrections is fine. The browser fix the orthography, but I 30% of the time forget to add the s to the verbs. For preposition, I roll a D20 and hope the best.
I'm not sure if these are expert systems, LLM, or pingeonware.
But I don't like when someone use a a LLM to rewrite the draft to make it more professional. It kills the personality of the author and may hallucinate details. It's also difficult to know how much of the post is written was the author and how much autocompleted by the AI:
[1] Remember to check that the technical terms are correctly translated. It used to be bad, but it's quite good now.
[2] most, not all. Sometimes the corrections are wrong.
