      THAT WORD DOES NOT MEAN WHAT YOU THINK IT DOES. THE REST OF THIS IS PERFECTLY TRANSLATED WHAT HAPPENEDpic.twitter.com/dTUhra7OB9

      The English is correct. This was clearly translated by someone with a good command of knowledge of English who looked up that word and didn't realize they picked a translation many native speakers wouldn't recognize. I bet they looked up 迷惑をかける or 不便を感じさせるpic.twitter.com/pCG31dt4IB

      The Japanese version does not use either of those terms but rather negated 快適 (comfortable), which is why I think this was done by someone competent (they were trying to express the same thing a different way, not just blindly looking up words).

      I do not agree. Whatever incommoding actually means, the first read most English speakers will take away is "it'll make you shit".

      What do you not agree with? I'm saying it's in the dictionary and technically correct and therefore it was an entirely common case of a non-native speaker using a word based on dictionary meaning without knowing how common/understandable it is (or isn't).

      IOW, it's a bad translation, but not an incorrect one, and one with a very common and simple explanation. I've seen this pattern many, many times.

          Fair enough I can agree with that

          Also I know this is done and over with but I just realized "accomodate" and "commodity" are cognates most English speakers would be familiar with. They go back to the same Latin/PIE root, and have a related meaning.
