I've found a new awesome time waster. It's called Translation Party.
I found time to throw a new one. Translator is called.
Found at TranslationParty.com, it's a nifty little webtool that takes a phrase, such as...
"The quick, brown fox jumped over the lazy dog."
and translates it from English into Japanese and back again until it translates the same in both languages. So the above phrase goes through 19 translations in a few seconds and is turned into
"Rose Brown is currently the lazy brown dog."
Now, that one isn't particularly hilarious but it's interesting to see what mulitple translations does to a phrase, and some CAN be extremely amusing.
Something simple like "Please have yourself a nice day!" goes to "I have a sunny day!"
Not exactly what I meant...but ok.
Or something silly like...
"No, I will not put your banana underwear upon my giraffe's head."
turns into an even sillier...
"No, I do not, he is located on the head of a giraffe wearing underwear, the banana is not."
Try it!
That is my time, enjoy.
It is time for me to enjoy.
