Internet Translators
 
This was inspired by Dead-Air in the art thread

This is "Fuck off you cunt" translated English - Japanese - English "cunt it keeps coming out".
"Picturesque valley with lake" translated through several languages became "colorful valley with the lake"
"Rocket man" through several languages became "the rocket person".
Now you try.

"space cadet" english - portugese - english = "cadet of the space"

Lurker 06.12.2008 06:39 PM

I tried the Beach Boys lyric "Woudn't it be nice if we were older? Then we wouldn't have to wait so long." English - Japanese - English but it didn't translate the "wouldn't"'s so I put it in unabreviated and got "Isn't that when we are older, splendid? Then as for us it is not necessary to wait so long."

This is great fun.

Might be.

Lurker 06.12.2008 06:44 PM

Cheer up. It's not the end of the world. Would it make things better if I made a thread about her for you?

No, because it would be a sarcastic one.

I thought it said, "I love you and your sexy ways".

Lurker 06.12.2008 07:18 PM

I can't tell if you're joking. I choose to take you literally.

I put "hits are for squares" English - Japanese - English and got "Collision is because in square"

Do you want a job?

StevOK 06.12.2008 08:02 PM

I remember reading somewhere that the Japanese equivalent of threatening to kick someone's ass literally translates to "I am going to hit you until you die". I cracked up for a good 10 minutes after reading that.

I used to have a fake myspace profile of a Ganguro girl that only spoke in broken English. I used that technique of filtering the language into Japanese and back again to English. It was great fun. You wouldn't believe how many desperate guys tried to pick her up and thought she was real. They just didn't get the joke.

Now I've got to go take a picture to go with that!

Dead-Air 06.13.2008 02:16 AM

You can tell I've done this enough times to know how to push the results a particular direction. Yes, I need help.

"Ghost Bitch" from English to Arabic to Korean to Japanese to Italian to English =

"Shadow of species of the illusion of the girl"

Weird how there are at least two other Sonic Youth song titles emerging from this!

Yeah, it was weird - but it was hilarious too.

So creating a Ganguro character on myspace was quite a bit of fun.
