Babelfish

This is quite funny...

Type in some English phrase, translate to another language (I found East Asian ones work well), then translate that result back to English. :-D

E.G.

Does anything need to be said? :confused

 

LOLLOL OH that is hilarious
I put in "what is your name"-Dutch- "what are your nasty"roflmaoroflmaoroflmao

 

'English to Japanese' = "Get lost!"

'Japanese to English' = "The profit which has been gone do!" LOL. Somehow, I don't think I would use Babelfish to translate my life's works. More fishy Babble than anything else. ...rolleyes

 

I think it's all in how you type it. You have to realize that not every language has the same words as the English language. For example: I just checked the time on my watch in English translates to: Acabo de comprobar el tiempo en mi reloj in spanish, which translates back to: I finish verifying the time in my clock

reloj being the confusion. In Spanish, there is no word for watch (meaning timepiece) reloj translates to clock.

It is funny, but I've usually been able to come up with a way to word things so that they translate back and forth the way I meant them to. LOL

First try and i broke it.

 

Mary had a little lamb its fleece was white as snow, and everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.

to German and Back:

Mary had a small lamb, which was white its fleece as snow, and everywhere went this Mary, the lamb was surely to be gone.

 

The problem with translateing German and Dutch is the Syntax many common phrases have certain words reversed.
E.G.
"Are you going to the restaurant" when literally said in Dutch comes out as "go you to the restaurant" and then when you translate back the syntax is all wrong for english.

 

lol!

Also:

 

Original English:

Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I love you baby?
Don't do me like that

Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Someday I might need you baby
Don't do me like that

To Korean and back (apostrophes removed otherwise it doesn't work quite so well):
Like it I. Like it I. The baby whom loves in what if? Like it I. Like it I. Like it I. The baby whom some day you in necessity, does not know I like it.
