I just realized that Pekora learns English by Vocabulary, not by practical phrases. This is why she can throw seemingly random words directly translated from Japanese, and can understand sentences because she translates it word per word.

[@Nekomikuri]

True, it's also why she just flings random letters together to form words

[@ViniBiniWini]

Yeah, it's noticeable especially whenever she's play Minecraft/interacting with overseas member and had to use DeepL, you can see that she didn't strike up copypaste a result of translated word but instead type it word per word. Pretty diligent rabbit, if i must say.
