The three translations

Are the three translations different forms of Spanish, i.e. Latin American, Spain and Mexico? Example: "Hail Mary", is Ave Maria, Dios te salve Maria and Saludo Mary.

Thanks

Ave Maria is Latin I believe, and Dios te salve María is correct Spanish; it is the first line of the Hail Mary prayer. Saludo Mary seems to be an incorrect word-for-word translation.

But to answer your question, no, the three translators are just different computer translators, which often make mistakes (see above). There are three so that you can compare the results they give and choose the best one.
