Lost In Translation: "Try it for yourself!" = "It stops! he examines"

Lost In Translation shows what happens an automatic translation tool translates from English to a few other languages and back again. Not that humans are much better as Pork with Fresh Garbage points out. There are plenty of Funny English Mistranslations around as well.




Original English Text: Try it for yourself!


Translated to French: Essayez-le pour vous-même !


Translated back to English: Test it for yourself!


Translated to German: Prüfen Sie es auf selbst!


Translated back to English: Examine it for!


Translated to Italian: Esaminilo per!


Translated back to English: It for! examines


Translated to Portuguese: Ele para! examina


Translated back to English: It stops! he examines


Translated to Spanish: ¡Para! él examina


Translated back to English: It stops! he examines
