Using the Google translator, http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en, write a sentence of whatever you want in English. Next, translate it into Japanese. Then, take the translated sentence, and translate it into Russian. Lastly, translate this back into English,, and see how your sentence has been altered! This is really fun! Here's the steps in a simpler format: 1. Translate sentence from English to Japanese. 2. Translate from Japanese to Russian 3. Translate from Russian to English 4. Post your results back here!  I'll begin. Let's all have fun playing this game, hopefully there will be few errors. Translated... Make fun of all is to play in this game will be some mistakes. It gets funny if you do some inappropriate ones (I wouldn't recommend posting those here on the forum though!  ). Let's see who can make the funniest one!--------------------  "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers." - Thomas Watson, Chairman of IBM, 1943 |
