I don't normally use the keyword suggestion tool as, working in specialist sectors, the alternatives offered are invariably so wide of the mark as to be comedic. However, our adword use is expanding and so, in need of new kw's, thought I'd give it a try.
Perhaps I've missed this somewhere, but since when have keyword alternatives been offered in different languages? And, relative to this instance, in Japanese...
Okay, only one kw threw up the Japanese alternative, but I did repeat the process to prove it wasn't a one-off glitch. Sure enough, the keyword tool offers it time and time again.
I like the idea of being able to find keyword alternatives in a different language (any language) - how amazingly useful! Is this something that I've just missed or is it simply an anomaly?
One other thing; I've no idea what the Japanese kw alternative actually says as a translation is not provided (and I've a yen to find out)...

<added>Okay, now seeing alternatives in German. I guess then this is something I've just missed before...</added>
