      It does not. “¿Por qué no?” means “Why not?” whereas “Porque no” means “Because not.” The spelling is similar, but the lack of a space changes the meaning.

            Hey guess what?

            1. it apparently means both and we arrived at demonstrating that via the same method, automatic translation

            2. I don’t care if you’re the king of Spain or the president of Mexico, doesn’t change the language

            3. lastly and most importantly, I was referencing a popular meme in a glib manner. That’s what you’re so overzealous about “correcting”.

          Garbage in, garbage out. You asked it to translate ungrammatical Spanish and it gave you a translation anyway, probably because lots of people accidentally write “por qué” as “porque”. It’s still wrong, though.
