Translating short words can make it impossible to translate other things?

While I was playing through the PARKS tutorial, I found that some sentences were mistranslated to make no sense at all. For example:
  • Each picture is worth +1 VP at the end of the game. -> Each picture is w或是th +1 VP at the end of the game.
I find the word "or" is translated into "或是" no matter where it is. It's destructive and absurd! I wonder if this is an isolated case, or if it happens in other languages and games as well. I also want to know how to solve it.

It seems to be the same bug as here for example: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=30684.

To solve it you can:
  • Contact the tutorial maker of Parks and ask if they can change the text to avoid the problem for this tutorial. (It is the string that just says "or" that needs to be changed.)

Thank you. I'll try to solve it.
