Good link, I think a lot of debates can start up over translation errors and cultural biases. For instance, my friend teases her parents about how illogical their native language is when it is translated to English, but native English speakers do not often realize how illogical English is, and that direct translations often lose a lot in their meaning and nuances, and whether something is plural/singular, masculine/feminine/neuter is often dropped in English but not in other languages. Not sure if I made any sense here.
For those interested in 2CT, I'd highly suggest checking out the 2CT tag on this tumblr:

The tumblr is from a native Japanese that is studying English, so she has quite an interesting perspective on the matter, and she's very nice and helpful :)
