Language "Encryption" by Shimmer Lunatic
June 9th, 2006 1:12 AM
I used http://www.worldlingo.com/en/products_services/worldlingo_translator.html as my online translation device.
I started with the following text:
"The chair is against the wall. John has a long moustache."
I translated the text into the following languages (in order) from English to:
Arabic
Dutch
French
German
Greek
Italian
Portuguese (Brazilian)
Russian
Spanish
Swedish
and then back to English.
Somewhere along the line, the translator replaced the word "moustache" with some synonym for "drinker," and it all went downhill from there. Here is the phrase that came out of this hypertext version of "Telephone":
"For the stool of the acknowledgment that will be satisfied to the wall. Graspings of Juan that will be drunk greatly."
