Machine translation has achieved amazing results in its progress,
But sometimes it does not “see” the most obvious equivalent:
“After some of the longest and strictest restaurant lockdowns of any city of the world, Toronto is moving towards lifting all pandemic restrictions by March 2022.”
Instead of matching ‘restaurant lockdowns’ to «закрытие ресторанов» it offers the incredible equivalent of «блокировка ресторанов»

He worked as a literary critic for several publications, including The Observer and The Guardian, and wrote studies of classic writers, notably James Joyce. A versatile linguist, Burgess lectured in phonetics, and translated Cyrano de Bergerac, Oedipus Rex, and the opera Carmen, among others.

ballin' like a boss
Without any context, it's hard to say exactly what it means.
In basic English I'd say it probably just means, "He's cool." and/or "He has lots of money."
“Look at him and his shiny car, he’s ballin’!”
'like a boss' can be a mere intensifier.

samfundssind is a compound noun of ‘samfund’ (society) and ‘sind’ (mind). It dates back to 1936. Hygge – which roughly translates to ‘a quality of cosiness’ – may be the most appropriated Danish word of the past decade, but it’s samfundssind that’s really come to define the nation in the era of Covid-19. If hygge is something you practice with people you know, samfundssind is more of a behaviour towards those you might not know. Rarely used until just a few months ago, it’s now entered th Danish vernacular in an explosive way. |

“Not all areas of discourse are equally open and penetrable; some are forbidden territory while others are virtually open to all. Religious discourse, juridical and therapeutic as well as political discourse are all barely dissociable from the functioning of a ritual that determines the individual properties and agreed roles of the speakers” [Foucault, Michel. The Discourse on Language // The Routledge Language and Cultural Theory Reader: London and New York, 2000. – P. 236.]

Two years ago, Medvedev cut an emotional figure after the men's singles final in New York. It was the Russian's first Grand Slam final and, after an exhilarating fightback from two sets down, he eventually lost an epic five-setter to Nadal. Два года назад Медведев выглядел очень эмоционально после финала мужского одиночного разряда в Нью-Йорке. Это был первый финал турнира Большого шлема россиянина, и после волнующей борьбы после двух сетов он в конце концов проиграл Надалю эпический пятисеттер.
The machine translation cannot produce adaptation. It was essential to come across with a simple fact:
Медведев обыграл Джоковича в финале US Open. Это его первая победа в турнире Большого шлема
