That's what I was hinting at and I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear. With dodgy translations, be they in phrase books or something done by a computer, I generally find that with goodwill and a bit of understanding of how lingo works, it's possible to get the gist. I presume the article I quoted was translated into perhaps Albanian (or whatever they speak there) then back into English. I'm at a loss to see the origin of purple mild.
