      It means Delay No More. So you're telling someone to hurry up, right? :)

    The subtitles are so random at one point it said Dons and Dina Store. I know it’s automatic but like what? 😆

      its not accurate and most people talk sometimes with slangs or stuff and the bot just translates basic sentences or words
