Gmail translates "Notre Dame" when reading an email

I run a small football pool for me and several buddies. Although the pool is on a website, I usually send an email with the list of games, which I did this morning.

One of the games is the Notre Dame/Texas A&M game this Saturday. I sent the email to everybody, including myself. When I opened the email, Gmail had changed “Notre Dame” to “Our Lady”. This is obviously the English translation, but why would Gmail do that?

As a test, I sent the same email to my alternate email address, which is Yahoo. Yahoo displays it as “Notre Dame”.

I’ve never seen Gmail do this, and I’m wondering what changed, and how I can set Gmail so it doesn’t translate when I read an email. Any thoughts?

gmail is stupid as dirt …

I quite often use the phrase “have a great weekend” when writing mails on a friday.

EVERY SINGLE FRIDAY, gmail suggests/autocompletes “have a great beginning of the week” (all in spanish, just if you wondered)

also when I write a mail today with an invitation for the 30th of august (as one could assume), Gmail autocompletes for june

every single time.

stupid as a bag of nails

Gmail just recently asked me if I wanted it to use AI to start making helpful suggestions to me. Like in the last couple of weeks. I said no. Maybe it’s coming on by default?
