YOU SAID:
One time I was taken into custody for bears
INTO JAPANESE
私はクマのために監禁されました
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I was confined for a bear
INTO JAPANESE
私はクマに閉じ込められていました
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I was trapped in a bear
INTO JAPANESE
私はクマに閉じ込められました
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I was trapped in a bear
That didn't even make that much sense in English.
