scottbre 0 #1 February 4, 2002 Ok, using the wonderous tools that internet provides, I took the sentence, "I like jumping out of an airplane." And put it through the rigors of translation. What follows is the sequence of languages it was translated into and the end result.English -> Spanish -> English -> Italian -> English -> French -> German -> English -> Portugese -> English -> Japanese -> English -> Chinese -> EnglishThe result was:The I to the airplane there is a taste inside that enterprise place.Granted, it sort of rhymes, I think the overall meaning is lost.And yes, I know I have too much time on my hands.

SpeedRacer 1 #5 February 4, 2002 Even just one-step translations get f^&ked up. I have seen some things written by Asians who had obviously used this thing to translate it into English, and the translation was totally f'ed up and barely understandable.Speed Racer"Fill your hand, you son-of-a-bitch!"
