Amusing translations

Hi all

Not sure if it was on this board, but some months ago someone told of a site which translated text from language to language and back to english. The results were good light-hearted stuff.

Anyone know which site I'm talking about?

Cheers

Philip

Hi Philip!

I don't know if this is the site you're talking about - but you can do this (with a little cutting and pasting) on Babelfish (link at the end of this post)....

Here is your post, translated from English to Korean, then back to English again....

Ummmm... What was that about peeling troublesome army songs? Hmm... I wonder if that could be a business idea.... :)

Babelfish translation

Hi Dien,

Glad to talk to you again.

I have been to the site and put Philip's post into Korean myself. I find that the software produces neat Korean characters.
But the good news stops there. The translation does Not Ever make any sense in Korean.
I think that AltaVista has a long way to go.

Hi! Thanks for the grin.

I remeber testing some of the translation sites when taking a class at our local college. We always got a laugh out of the results.
