Non sequiturs, ex post facto, ante bellum, et cetera.
Just can't handle them.

Sequiturs want to be requiters.
Facto wants to be fact o.
Bellum wants to be dumbell.
Cetera wants to be terrace.

O tempora, o mores!

Also: 'caveat peremptory'. I like that one.

Latin? It doesn't even handle English well! And don't get me started on Auto-correct on my stupid phone!

Pretentious? Moi?

Welcome to my freaking life.
I teach Latin for a living, and freaking Bill Gates is always changing my "Relatus" to "relates" and so forth.

OTOH it would probably be very funny to see what it does to GW's "Imperium-speak"*…. ;-)

* You know, that fake Latin printing on the purity scrolls/TP that the Emperor's Finest festoon themselves with…. ;-)

Surely Most Stifled that should be

Ambitiosior, me ?

It doesn't handle chemistry all that well either.
