Go to Google Translate and translate "For your information" into any language other than Japanese or Chinese.  You'll see the same results on Babelfish.  I find this a rather baffling error.

And yet "Your Information" translates just fine. Perhaps because those three words together a figure of speech used in the English langrage, and is hitting some wall in their database o' languages.

Oh, you were pretending?

I noticed that, too. What's perplexing is that All The Words Are Capitalized (except the Korean, where the spaces are replaced by dots [?]), which might work with the 'figure of speech' theory.
