Girl Uses Google Translate To Invite Her New Classmate Who Was Isolated To Sit With Her At Lunch
Elementary school student Rafael Anaya had just moved from Mexico to California, and, not knowing English, was having a hard time finding new friends – until one girl used google translate to reach out and write a letter to him. A 10-year-old classmate Amanda Moore saw the boy eating lunch alone, and didn’t think it was right. See, Amanda is a girl who believes that everyone should have a buddy, so she used technology to invite Rafael to have lunch with her. Her letter reads: ‘Would you like to sit with me today? Look for me and I will show you where I sit. We can color or simply tell scary stories. Thank you for your time, signed Amanda.’
The girl’s mother Kindard told ABC7 News that since her daughter gave Rafael the note, the two have become friends. The classmates who proved that friendship is stronger than language barrier, they even went trick-or-treating together on Halloween. Rafael told the news channel that Amanda and him would be friends ‘forever.’

God bless Amanda Moore, and her new friendship with Rafael Anaya. And a BIG thumbs up for her heart of gold and the parents who raised a treasure
Thank you Amanda for reminding us adults how to behave correctly... You're amazing
My 7th grade students use Google translate to communicate with their classmates who move to the U.S. from other countries & are learning English. It's awesome that we have such an easily accessible resource these days!
Ella tiene una bonita Corazon y espero que el nino habia almuerzo con Amanda
I'm no Spanish speaker, but I love languages, so I'm very curious: isn't "corazon" a male noun? Because in Italian, "cuore", it is.

That restores faith in Humanity. Wish adults would take example from their children.

IF Trump wins I would suggest the little girl to be his teacher! He would have so much to learn from her kindness I don't even know where to start...
Thank god they didn't show up for your poor attitude.
