I've been helping Molly with some editing lately. Boy, does it take intense concentration! Holt has several publications that need to be in English. The employees do their best to translate from Korean to English, but sometimes it gets a little odd. I have a few examples for you:
"On that day sixteen people were present and the ceremony was finished in cheerful atmosphere..."
"The choir became the most happy of all only if they could sing..."
"Holt could have grown up with our sponsors and volunteers encouragement and love, and staffs devotion and effort. Therefore, we could have made a great development and expansion of our business..."
Yep, it'll give you a headache after awhile of reading these kinds of sentences!
