Facebook Inc apologised for mistranslating Chinese President Xi Jinping’s name from Burmese to a vulgar word in English in some posts, the New York Times reported.
The mistranslation should not have occurred and “we are taking steps to ensure it doesn’t happen again,†the newspaper cited the social media company as saying.
The error caught management’s attention when Aung San Suu Kyi, the de facto leader of Myanmar, wrote on her Facebook page about Xi’s visit to her country.
