Bad Translator!



"Machine translations are useful for getting a general idea about what text written in a foreign language means. However, "general idea" isn't 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 Google Translate, then displays the final English translation.
Original, from Lady Gaga's Bad Romance: "You and me put on a bad romance"
54 Translations later: "I love you?"
If you have text that needs to be professionally translated, we recommend translation services from Translation Services USA. Looking for Jobs? They exist!"
