- love it! from English through 5 languages and back to English. Ridiculous. Try: Roses are red. Violets are blue. Sugar is sweet and so are you.

- "I'm hot cause I'm fly, you ain't cause you not" translates to "It is not, because they are Moscow, heat, because you he are not." And "I fly like paper get high like planes" translates to "The flight has taste of him of paper, I gets to be high like superficial." hahaha I love this thing.

- Pointless, time-wasting fun that demonstrates the general incoherence that is Babelfish and other online translators.

- This site really shows you why I hate babelfish and google translator. Its show how a word in english translated into Italian then into English again will certainly be untranslated. See the example shown below:- Translated to German: Ich hasse, setze am Boden die Zerstörung der Regierung. Alle Menschlichkeit muß das Verbrechen in mir bedauern. Translated back to English: I hate, set at the soil the destruction of the government. All humanity must regret the crime in me. Translated to Italian: Odio, regolo al terreno la distruzione del governo. Tutta l'umanità deve rammaricarsi il crimine. Translated back to English: Hatred, I regulate to the land the destruction of the government. All the humanity must rammaricarsi the crime.
