[L. Mohan Arun]

I'm sorry, but "web site maker software" isn't English. You might
intend "web sites of makers of software," or "software for making web
sites," and it isn't clear whether you are saying that the web sites
are bloated or the software is bloated.


Disagree with you here - My work requires me to use this exact phrase
"web site maker software" It is just like "office productivity
software" . I dont intend to say web sites of makers of software - it
looks you are going on a different trail.

Going by your own version, "Other software for making web sites are
bloated." Gives an error in the "are" . It is not correct to say
"Other software for making web sites is bloated" because this sense is
plural not singular.

I dont want to use terms other than "software" because I need to use
the exact keyword phrase that includes the term "software".

Ultimately what I wanted to say is not about how infallible machine
translation is - I simply wanted to point out the quirks in W2003
grammar so the powers that be can fix it in the next release. I know
grammar sensing is not that perfect.

It is not a problem, because the word "software" is singular, even if
it refers to more than one piece of software / more than one program.

Disagree - IT IS a problem with W2003 grammar. And I still say
software is a term that needs to be plural not singular. Or both.

To prove this type this in w 2003
"There are other softwares for doing this."
"Softwares" term is flagged as error - right click - you will find
"software" as an option. Select that and it now complains about the
"are".

Bottom line: Both the words "download" and "software" needs fixing in
Grammar in W2003
