For those who do not yet know of it's glory, there is a website that contains a magical and wonderful thing called the Bad Translator. You type things into it, and it will completely distort whatever you typed in by translating the text into a random language and then back to English, and then to a random language again and then back to English again. It can do this up to 43 times. This is the thread where you post the results of your translations. The Bad Translator is right here: http://ackuna.com/badtranslator

For those who don't know what you see, it's really bad, I wrote it. sad. x published in a language other than English or Russian, you can translate what I wrote in 43 times, and the results can be adjusted. and it's not the plague.

Isn't it amazing? Just post you original text and your translated version, along with any comments on what your words got translated to.

ERROR, please try again after we attempt to do the banana dance.

Don't you mean to say this?

"From what I see people who don't know, it really doesn't need much damage that I want to write about? Jean-registration, if the the moneypenny after your accident once again, you can do language and published in Russian in 43 times, and the results can be adjusted. And it's not the plague: http://ackuna.com/badtranslator

These men, if not worse, as I write this, alas.... Language-speak English on a web page outside of the Russian Federation, you can contact me at 43 this time. 'T like. It's like a disease.

It's a little bit strange? The original text and the translation is only a translation in the booklet said."

Also there's already a thread for this.

LOL

Crazee-Pi-Forum counts diagonally. = The diagonal values of the Prince Edward island Council Crazee.

The bad translator translates badly. = The poor translation and the translation is not necessary.

LOL = Outdoor.

Translate something to another language and back to English 43 times and you'll get something weird that doesn't sound anything like the original. = You can translate any language to Russia. 43 at the same time, a strange thing, not a thing, very original.

I'm an Alpha Voltail, which can burrow (teleport) around the area I'm in, bite three times in a row, and shock Knights I bite. = Every autumn (days) three times, and all the Knights of the index to Part II.

Machine translations are useful for getting a general idea about what text written in a foreign language means. However, "general idea" isn't always exactly accurate; the translator literally translates (word for word) the text which often results in grammatically incorrect, if not completely incoherent, text. We've developed Bad Translator to show just how funny things can get. Enter any text in English then click "Translate!" to start. The program translates the text back and forth using FreeTranslation.com, TransPerfect, and Yandex, then displays the final English translation. = Translation-it is very useful if you want to know what is written in this language. But this idea, of course, and then, and vice versa (on a weekday), usually grammatically correct, because it is not based on an interpretation of the text. Let's start with the bad news, I know who to write letters in English, and then when you're on your way. If you want to run the program text, and vice versa. FreeTranslation.com advertising, design, research, information, or translated into Russian translators of the screen.

Humans can't survive without potatoes and kittens. Spiral Knights also helps, but it isn't completely necessary. = People can't live without potatoes. Cat. No. Cyclists. But this is not necessary.

This next one doesn't have the original - Can you figure it out?

The success of the team, in fact, this is the place, I don't know, may be the best solution.

ERROR, please try again after we attempt to do the banana dance.

One day Hancymcfancy was walking down the street, when suddenly a wild Prince Edward attacked him. Hancymcfancy fired his Hat-O-Matic 2000 at Prince Edward, causing them to dance a very fancy dance.

Translates to...

At the time the Prince was in the box Hancymcfancy if you're on the road. Hancymcfancy 2000, when the Prince MATIC. Never. Dance. Dance.

I decided to "cheat" and make 129 translations.

By entering the results into it again. This resulted in:

Wisdom to Nonsense

I entered one of my favorite quotes into the translator:

"War is a stern teacher. In depriving them [the people] of the means of satisfying their daily wants, it brings most people's minds down to the level of their actual circumstances." -Thucydides

This piece of wisdom translates into this piece of nonsense:

"War is a good teacher of the people, were they? Necessary level of financial resources for families with low I had to think about the rules."

Lord Vanaduke

Lord Vanaduke became a beast far stronger than he was before, and reclaimed his kingdom - However, he also destroyed it in the process. Knights can find him in the Firestorm Citadel, but they need to be prepared for a major battle.

Became...

Vanaduke is a monster compared to the past, and you came back to Venezuela, but is destroyed in the process. the pilot had a chance to find a way out of the castle, but we have to be ready to fight.

And SilhouetteShadow (the name of a user on another website) became "Movie of the dress".
