Does false mean true in German or is it the other way around?

At least that is what Google says (see the attached picture).

When doing the class diagram for ding_t this evening, I had to use the Google translator once and again since I forgot most of the words I had learned some weeks ago.  And this is what Google translates for one of the comments of the code...  Incredible...  :o

Maybe somebody in your IP range is not liked by homeland security activated "Google code obsfucation" for this IP range ...

 :D

Edit: now rethinking about your post, maybe you are saying that from your computer, Google doesn't translate that way.  In that case, maybe someone has filled the box "Suggest a better translation" in between...

From my knowledge, German for "false" is "falsche" and "true" is "wahr"

Sure.  The funny thing was that when I asked to Google Translate to translate "false" from German to English, the answer was "true"!!!

I have checked now and it still works and is very strange: if you type "@return false", it translates from German to English "@return false", but if you add the word "wenn", it changes "false" and becomes "true"...  :D

This happens if you translate to any language...
-1 for you Google Translate. :D

Much on the contrary...  I like it.  It makes Google Translate so human...
