Easy explanation, Google Translate has turned into a Wikipedia of sorts, users can rate translations of individual words, and them being used more than once, in phrases, etc. And that affects what is displayed in the conversion. For example, if someone sends me something translated to Japanese, a year ago it would've been formal... almost textbook/robotic like. Now it's the actual human phrase.

So long story short, Google got trolled.

"Now it's actual human phrases" sounds much better!

 

"Google got trolled" via the "suggest translation" function?
