Microsoft edge BUG, which has lasted for a long time

When the translated English content contains dates, for example:

Your membership will end on August 11, 2023

The built-in translation plug-in of edge browser will translate the content as follows:

您的会员资格将于 11 年 2023 月 <> 日结束

 

This is wrong. The correct order of expression in the Chinese context is: year>month>day.

 

For example, August 11, 2023

Correctly translated into 2023.8.11 in Chinese

 

 

The automatic translation of the page confuses the year and month, because their order in the Chinese context is inconsistent, and the year is incorrectly written as the month.

微软edge BUG,且持续有很长时间了
edge浏览器BUG

当翻译英文内容包含日期时,例如:
Your membership will end on August 11, 2023
edge浏览器内置翻译插件会翻译内容为:
您的会员资格将于 11 年 2023 月 <> 日结束

这是错误的,中文语境中的正确表达顺序为:年>月>日。

例如 August 11, 2023
在中文正确应翻译为2023.8.11

 

页面自动翻译混乱了年份和月份,因为他们在中文语境的顺序不一致,年份也错误的写成了月。

    Please do not use Microsoft's built-in translation plug-in to translate this content, which may cause the BUG display to fail to understand the error..

    Ah indeed. When I performed "Translate selection to Japanese" with "Your membership will end on August 11, 2023" selected, Edge sent requests to the server api.cognitive.microsofttranslator.com (or edge.microsoft.com/translate/) and received a response as below.

    [{"detectedLanguage":{"language":"en","score":1.0},"translations":[{"text":"メンバーシップは2023年8月11日に終了します","to":"ja","sentLen":{"srcSentLen":[43],"transSentLen":[24]}}]}]

    Translated text is correct, perfect. However, Edge damages it on the page as

    メンバーシップは11年2023月<>日に終了します

    It is broken...

      Do you think Microsoft and its edge team will fix this bug.... Is there no official technician in this forum?
