Bad Translations

[Jimbob]

I stumbled across a website called the 'Bad Translator', which allows you to input text and have it translated several times over in various online translators such as Bing. It generally ends up getting some pretty bizarre results (hint: the longer the text and translation number, the better), some of which can be rather funny, so as Drill Master suggested I thought I'd make a topic for people to share their translations on.

 

The website is very easy to use and can be found here: Bad Translator. Simply translate a piece of text and copy and paste the result in the pop-up into a post here.

 

Example:

Original text:

'If you select the red brick, you go. If you select the green brick, you stay.'

 

Translates to:

'Glass and red. If you select the stones next to the hotel.'

 

 

Some translations Arthuriel, Biorune, Drill Master and I have done already:

 

Biorune:

Original text:

"And you can change flowers to cups, and red to blue depending on who you are."

 

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"The red and blue, Mr. Reid's official flower."

 

Drill Master:

Original text:

 

"A slimey slug is invading your base!"

 

...8 translations later, Bing gives us:

 

"Slimey slimy, attack your base!"

 

Arthuriel:

Bing + 27 translations + "A landslide has occured" = ã€

 

No, really. That was my result. Looks like mirrored comma. Maybe it represents a rolling rock from a landslide.

 

Drill Master:

Original text:

 

"Your air supply is running out!"

 

...27 translations later, Bing gives us:

 

"Compression system of soup."

 

Rock Raiders actually breathe SOUP!

 

Arthuriel:

I think, we have to change our theme:

 

"Rock Raiders United. For Legends."

 

Bing + 27 translations:

 

"In the United States, pirate rock. Brussels."

 

Hmm, pirate rock

 

JimbobJeffers:

Original text: 'Oops! Driving ain't like skateboarding...'

 

18 translations later:

'Oh my! The floppy drive is not like on a skateboard.'

 

 

Original text:

 

"I'll see you at the finish line."

 

...18 translations later, Bing gives us:

 

"Is the Board."

 

Drill Master:

Original text:

 

"You should make a topic for these, JimbobJeffers!"

 

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

 

"Topic JimbobJeffer."

 

Arthuriel:

First sentence from the rru-wiki entry about rubble:

 

Rubble is a pile of dirt and rock that lies on the Ground.

 

translates to (Bing + 27 translations):

 

The dust, which ruins and rock the world.

 

Question: Is that a good or a bad sign?

 

Second result: This is a scam and rock.

 

Third result: A coil in the list of years of neglect towards the bottom.

 

Fourth result (35 translations): Tile, stone, and battery.

Edit:

Original text:

 

"Best pizza on the island. Even if it wasn't the only pizza on the island."

 

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

 

"The best pizza on the island are islands."

 

That's even more weird.

Text from Drill Master's post:

Really? From best topic ever to death, to love? And no one had better call me JimBob Johnson. Ugh.

 

 

EDIT:

Yeah, I've had the website lag a little since posting it on RRU. But that may just be my ISP being stupid again.

[Arthuriel]

I translated the sentence "Chief is one of the six main Characters from Rock Raiders. " dozens of times, because I wanted to know, how many weird translations are possible.

Here are the best examples (I had four open tabs with the bad translator to get more translations in the same time. Sorry that I have so many translations, but I couldn't decide, which ones were better):

 

...8 translations later, Bing gives us:

"Stone is one of the six main characters, General Manager of the pirates."

 

Comment: Best job description ever. I hope, that Pirate General Manager "Stone" will appear in Rock Raiders II

 

results with 35 translations and Bing:
