This is the case with all the translations (at least the ones I can read - french, spanish & italian) which is also why I think that a standard translation tool would not work unless the actual word in the English language is 'adult' and only has one meaning - which I don't think there are any. To pull off what he wants to do well - he'd need an adult themed translator where the first translation would be the slang or adult term for each word by default & if none exist, then it would go to the proper english meaning translated into the foreign language.
