It's a 'murder of crows' and a 'parliament of owls'. Also, geese are a gaggle, kittens are a litter, and unicorns are a surprise [that's really what a group of unicorns is called!] Oh, and dragons are apparently storms, weyr, clans, rage, and so forth.

Dragons have FOUR terms for their groups?

8O

I guess if large flying reptiles blow fire, they get special privileges, huh?

I didn't think so. I'm wondering if Google Translate is that reliable. Maybe with entire sentences, but not so much with one word.
Its not reliable with sentences either. I've tried some of the sentences written in Esperanto and others in different threads on WP. Oh boy! I saw a horror example just today lol when I got the following result from Google Translate: "Only a few requests to more short-term leave. Are you sure that is fininda the stress hits aspire to? Probably not yet vain conform to new requirements.

However, if it is vain, too vain to lure our attention."

A translation team on Mangahelpers once put a Japanese phrase into Google translation just for fun and ended up with Ishley, Number 1 of the Male Era and King of the North somehow being translated into Barack Obama. 8O :scratch:
