Cheers for that. Your site is actually funny unlike the one posted in the OP. I love learning about new sites.cuddly_tomato said:Ohh don't get me wrong your stuff is fun. I was just looking to spread some bad translation fun around.CincoDeMayo said:I was just suggesting the site for shits and giggles, if it ain't your slice of pie then don't bother posting ^^cuddly_tomato said:Dude, if you want real bad translations just go to Engrish.com.
Hm, interesting. I found out that google translate actually uses an algorithm for its translations so that the sentence makes sense syntactically most of the time. That's why you never seem to get sentences like "the cat sun wall drives eat" because there is no clear syntactical connection. Even if you enter words that break the rules of syntax, the translation still results in a mostly syntactically correct sentence. Example:
original sentence: Rocks fun cell people eat sun son steal win.
translated sentence: An interesting time on Sunday, the youth will have consequences.
The translated sentence is mostly semantically empty, but the syntax doesn't break any rules.
original sentence: Rocks fun cell people eat sun son steal win.
translated sentence: An interesting time on Sunday, the youth will have consequences.
The translated sentence is mostly semantically empty, but the syntax doesn't break any rules.
Tried a moral-type sentence.

"We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing; others judge us by what we have done"
...54 translations later we get:
"We know that some people in our launches."
... I... I'm speeshless

The site I posted isn't funny, no. But the results are, that's what the whole point was with the thread, sharing funny translation results using the engine. If you find it unfunny to try the engine then fine, don't, but there's no need to post irrelevant things.khaimera said:Cheers for that. Your site is actually funny unlike the one posted in the OP.

Original:
"There once was a man from Spain. He disliked his wife, and so had her assassinated with a feather duster. However, the assassin tickled himself silly on the car journey over and drove off a cliff."
10 translations later:
"One from Spain. He loved his wife, even kill the canvas paper. However, the murderers of innocent people in the car itch, into the abyss."
54 translations later:
"Books in Spanish, and the death of his wife. Rock and Cars and killing innocent people and their organized."
Ok, what the fuck? That's hilarious! You can never translate something literally.

Original quote: Religion. It's like your genitalia, don't show it in public and don't shove it down a child's throat.
At 25, it turns into: Trust. I hope to show that the public places to promote the child's neck in the genitals.
At Max: Public confidence in the hope of Restoring the penis. However it seems to that the driver.
...Maybe I chose an original quote that practically begs to be twisted in this way... Didn't change the fact that I found the 'translations' funny to read. XD

This just killed me, death by laughter. When you twist about the sentence a little bit to make it "make sense" it really gets fucking hilarious.NSGReaper said:

And do you really think that I didn't understand that its the translations that are supposed to be funny and not the actual website itself? I'm not an idiot. Its not like I put in the url and then started laughing becuase the url is so funny.
Look at your first translation: take the clothes and the percentage of English labels
English labels and clothes being taken off, wow thats comic genius. I too can put random words together and call it humor. Dont be so offended that people didn't like your site and then you were one upped by subeseqqent posts.
The thing here is that you're off topic, it's rude, unnecessary and irrelevant. That you also wrote "Your site is actually funny unlike the one posted in the OP" only makes you even more rude. If you don't like the thread, why bother posting at all? Have your opinion, but don't try to slap me in the face with it.khaimera said:So opinions are now irrelevant becuase you don't like them?CincoDeMayo said:The site I posted isn't funny, no.

There is no end discussion. If you can't handle opinions, then dont make threads. Some people don't find funny what you do. Also, you got offended, not me.CincoDeMayo said:The thing here is that you're off topic, it's rude, unnecessary and irrelevant.

I know this thread is being derailed, but there was never a point to the thread anyways besides "hey guys I found a new website, it mixes words up, hooray"
