>They aren't laughing at that time.

The sentence doesn't make sense.

Here's the Google Translate translation of the Hungarian:

They didn't laugh then.

Here's the Google Translate translation of the Japanese:

They didn't do it.

Are either of the Google Translate translations good?

The Japanese says:
They weren't laughing at that time.
Does this make sense to you?

By the way, the Google Translate translations are not good at all. Maybe a different sentence was inputted, or some words were left out. But they do not match at all. Is the Translator up to date?

My Google Translate and DeepL say:
They were not laughing then.

Thanks for trying it out. Now Google Translate is saying "They weren't laughing then" when I run it, too. I'm not sure what happened previously.
