Engrish
« on: April 06, 2011, 12:32:08 am »
I found a neat little tool on-line that translates things into other languages and back to English to see what happens.

"If you were thinking about someone while reading this, you're definitely
in Love." turns to "If you dare, read March"

"Life is like a box of chocolates." turns to "Chocolate is a place to live."

"What is Omnimaga?" turns to "Omunimaga?"

"My calculator runs WFRNG." turns to "WFRNG running my calculator." to "VFRNG game."

"Netham45 is a lobster" turns to "Netham 45 Norwegian", then to "Norway, 1945." O_O

It's been done before: http://translationparty.com/
"No tools will make a man a skilled workman, or master of defense, nor be of any use to him who has not learned how to handle them, and has never bestowed any attention upon them. . . . Yes, [] the tools which would teach men their own use would be beyond price."—Plato's The Republic, circa 380 BC

I forgot about that one. I remember trying it and it outputted some quite funny stuff. However then it stopped working on my computer for odd reasons (in every browser). Now it works again it seems.

Somewhat NSFW (Duke Talk)
Spoiler For Spoiler:
Original text:

"It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum, and I'm all out of gum."

...56 translations later we get:

"Pump several times in other areas."

...56 translations later we get:

""If you visit the pump.""

...56 translations later we get:

""Thank you, looking at the pump.""

And even funnier:
(More Duke Nukem Quotes)
Spoiler For Spoiler:


"I'm not going to fight you, I'm gonna kick your ass"

...56 translations later we get:

"How can she sleep with me in the opposite direction."
