Ok, this is quite simple. You take a phrase. You translate it into Japanese. Then into Russian. Then into Hindi. Then back into English.
You post the new, 'revised' phrase back in here, to see how much it's changed.
I'll go first.
Before - My cousin is a meerkat of strange angles
After - Meerkat my cousin is an odd angle
Yeah, they're usually funnier.

Interesting concept.
I tested it with the opening lyric to Bob Dylan's Idiot Wind:
"Someone’s got it in for me, they’re planting stories in the press"
And I ended up with this:
"Press, they put me to the history of someone"

Doing an entire song can produce some funny results...

Oh, this is fun! We got in trouble doing this in the community center. One of my friends put "I like big butts" translated to Tagalog, then to Ukrainian, then it came back as "I suck big cocks".

Yeah, I know. We honestly had no idea how that could've translated to that, but it was pretty hilarious.

I bet it could.
Here's an interesting result.
I inputted your favorite: "Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?"
And got: "Until now, all this is true, that it was decided to use it as we want to do more?"
Is it just me or did the translator produce a statement that makes more sense?

Very interesting...
testing the entire song theory, here are the lyrics to The Beatles' While My Guitar Gently Weeps:
| Quote: | I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it need sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you
how to unfold you love
I don't know how someone controlled you
they bought and sold you
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know how you were diverted
you were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
no one alerted you
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps |
And here is the result...
"See if I do not like all the gold, I saw
My guitar, Jentoriuipusu
I looked at the floor and I need it, please refer to cleaning
Still my guitar gently weeps
I do not know who told you
How to expand love
I do not know how someone controlled you
They buy and sell you
I have seen peace, I saw him with
My guitar, Jentoriuipusu
Every mistake we must learn to confidently
Still my guitar gently weeps
I do not know you were transferred
You are also twisted
I do not know what you were inverted
No one warned you
See if I do not like all the gold, I saw
My guitar, Jentoriuipusu
I see you all
Still my guitar gently weeps"
Jentoriuipusu!!!!

In keeping up with the song theme, this is Chris Daughtry's "No Surprise"
Before:
| Quote: | I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
And now I think that I've got it all down
And as I say it louder I love how it sounds
Cause I'm not taking the easy way out
Not wrapping this in ribbons
Shouldn't have to give a reason why...
It's NO SURPRISE I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed till today
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was NO SURPRISE
It came out like a river once I let it out
When I thought that I wouldn't know how
Held onto it forever just pushing it down
Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrapping this in ribbons
Shouldn't have to give a reason why
It's NO SURPRISE I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed till today
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
There's nothing here in this soul left to say
Don't be surprised when we hate this tomorrow
God know we tried to find an easier way
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was NO SURPRISE
Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that's left your eyes
That's why this comes as no, as NO SURPRISE
If I could see the future and how this plays out
I bet it's better than where we are now
But after going through this, it's easier to see the reason why
It's NO SURPRISE I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed till today
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was NO SURPRISE
The kiss goodnight, it comes with me
Both wrong and right, our memories
The whispering before we sleep, just one more thing that you can't keep
Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that's left your eyes
But I know in time we'll find this was NO SURPRISE |
After:
"This time I did a practice round and round
And now I think there is every
And I say that I really love the sound as
Infections caused me any easy way
Do not wrap the tape
There is no need need to give reasons why ...
I'm not going to happen tomorrow, it's a surprise
I can not believe that was still
C Yes, I will act strictly followed
But I'm in my time, that knows not surprising to find
Then, like a river I give
I thought that I do not know how
Conference, simply press it down forever
Felt so good to go
Do not wrap the tape
Need to give a reason why
I will not be tomorrow, it's a surprise
I can not believe that was still
There is nothing in my heart, left lending
Soul Say Nothing left here
We wonder that I hate it tomorrow
God is looking for a simple, as we
C Yes, I will act strictly followed
But I am in my time, surprisingly you know,
Our favorite place we went
Warm hugs all know
Your eyes are loving eyes
So why come to no surprise that
If I see the future, this method
Where we do not guarantee I'm better
But for the simple reason, please see
I will not be tomorrow, it's a surprise
I can not believe that was still
C Yes, I will act strictly followed
But I am in my time, surprisingly you know,
Goodnight kiss, he comes to me
And good and bad, our memories
To bed, we whisper, and no one can save you before you go
Our favorite place we went
Warm, accepting all know
Your eyes are loving eyes
But I am in my time, was surprised to find that one knows"
Good thing I copy and pasted before the sites caught whiff and prevented everyone else from copying and pasting song lyrics.

Heh, That's pretty funny. "I'm not going to happen tomorrow, it's a surprise"
ANd people copy paste lyrics around all the time. I wouldn't worry about it.

Agreed entirely.
I next decided to use the lyrics to Tom Traubert's Blues, by Tom Waits.
original lyrics:
| Quote: | Wasted and wounded, it ain't what the moon did
Got what I paid for now
See ya tomorrow, hey Frank can I borrow
A couple of bucks from you?
To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
I'm an innocent victim of a blinded alley
And tired of all these soldiers here
No one speaks English and everything's broken
And my Stacys are soaking wet
To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
Now the dogs are barking and the taxi cab's parking
A lot they can do for me
I begged you to stab me, you tore my shirt open
And I'm down on my knees tonight
Old Bushmill's I staggered, you buried the dagger
Your silhouette window light
To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
Now I lost my Saint Christopher now that I've kissed her
And the one-armed bandit knows
And the maverick Chinaman and the cold-blooded signs
And the girls down by the strip-tease shows
Go, waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
No, I don't want your sympathy
The fugitives say that the streets aren't for dreaming now
Manslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memories
They want a piece of the action anyhow
Go, waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
And you can ask any sailor and the keys from the jailor
And the old men in wheelchairs know
That Matilda's the defendant, she killed about a hundred
And she follows wherever you may go
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
And it's a battered old suitcase to a hotel someplace
And a wound that will never heal
No prima donna, the perfume is on
An old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey
And goodnight to the street sweepers
The night watchman flame keepers and goodnight to Matilda too |
And this became:
"Injured in vain, not the moon
So far I have been paid to the fact that
Please, see you tomorrow, hey Frank can I borrow
A couple of bucks for you?
I Matilda, I went to Matilda
You are going to travel with me
Innocent victim of blind alleys I
Tired of all these soldiers here
Spoke in English, all broken
And my Stacys are wet
I Matilda, I went to Matilda
You are going to travel with me
Now the dog barking and the taxi
They can do a lot to me
I ordered a shot, you read my shirt
And I'm on my knees today
Orudobusshumiru hit me, you buried the knife
Your Shiruettouindouraito
I Matilda, I went to Matilda
You are going to travel with me
Now, when I kissed her, she lost Sentokurisutofa
And I know that another armed robbery
Cold-blooded characters and Chinese heresy
Girls striptease show down
Go Matilda waltz Matilda I
You are going to travel with me
No, I do not want your sympathy
Volatiles in dream no more to say
Murder of ghosts and memories dragnets Sell
They are just some of the action
Go Matilda waltz Matilda I
You are going to travel with me
And you can ask the crew and key Keeper
We also know that a man in a wheelchair
Matilda the defendant, she killed about a hundred
And he can go where you are:
Warutsuingumachiruda, I Matilda
You are going to travel with me
And an old suitcase somewhere in the hotel Abuse
The wound is not very good
No prima donna, the perfume
Old shirt, which is in the blood and whiskey
Clean the streets at night
Good night watchman flame keepers and Matilda for"
I love all the romaji approximations that slip in after it's translated out of Japanese.
And the fact that lines like "I begged you to stab me, you tore my shirt open" become lines like "I ordered a shot, you read my shirt" confound and amuse me greatly.

What the fuck, dude. That's pretty fucking hilarious. And all those Japanese romanji words just add to the hilarity.

I decided to do a full Bob Dylan song now.
Motorpsycho Nightmare. Already a fairly humorous song:
| Quote: | I pounded on a farmhouse
Lookin’ for a place to stay
I was mighty, mighty tired
I had come a long, long way
I said, “Hey, hey, in there
Is there anybody home?”
I was standin’ on the steps
Feelin’ most alone
Well, out comes a farmer
He must have thought that I was nuts
He immediately looked at me
And stuck a gun into my guts
I fell down
To my bended knees
Saying, “I dig farmers
Don’t shoot me, please!”
He cocked his rifle
And began to shout
“You’re that travelin’ salesman
That I have heard about”
I said, “No! No! No!
I’m a doctor and it’s true
I’m a clean-cut kid
And I been to college, too”
Then in comes his daughter
Whose name was Rita
She looked like she stepped out of
La Dolce Vita
I immediately tried to cool it
With her dad
And told him what a
Nice, pretty farm he had
He said, “What do doctors
Know about farms, pray tell?”
I said, “I was born
At the bottom of a wishing well”
Well, by the dirt ’neath my nails
I guess he knew I wouldn’t lie
“I guess you’re tired”
He said, kinda sly
I said, “Yes, ten thousand miles
Today I drove”
He said, “I got a bed for you
Underneath the stove
Just one condition
And you go to sleep right now
That you don’t touch my daughter
And in the morning, milk the cow”
I was sleepin’ like a rat
When I heard something jerkin’
There stood Rita
Lookin’ just like Tony Perkins
She said, “Would you like to take a shower?
I’ll show you up to the door”
I said, “Oh, no! no!
I’ve been through this before”
I knew I had to split
But I didn’t know how
When she said
“Would you like to take that shower, now?”
Well, I couldn’t leave
Unless the old man chased me out
’Cause I’d already promised
That I’d milk his cows
I had to say something
To strike him very weird
So I yelled out
“I like Fidel Castro and his beard”
Rita looked offended
But she got out of the way
As he came charging down the stairs
Sayin’, “What’s that I heard you say?”
I said, “I like Fidel Castro
I think you heard me right”
And ducked as he swung
At me with all his might
Rita mumbled something
’Bout her mother on the hill
As his fist hit the icebox
He said he’s going to kill me
If I don’t get out the door
In two seconds flat
“You unpatriotic
Rotten doctor Commie rat”
Well, he threw a Reader’s Digest
At my head and I did run
I did a somersault
As I seen him get his gun
And crashed through the window
At a hundred miles an hour
And landed fully blast
In his garden flowers
Rita said, “Come back!”
As he started to load
The sun was comin’ up
And I was runnin’ down the road
Well, I don’t figure I’ll be back
There for a spell
Even though Rita moved away
And got a job in a motel
He still waits for me
Constant, on the sly
He wants to turn me in
To the F.B.I.
Me, I romp and stomp
Thankful as I romp
Without freedom of speech
I might be in the swamp |
through the translator, it results in the most hilarious one yet in my opinion.
From the first line, this is gold:
"I farm fire
Search Places to Stay
I'm tired of big, it was greatness
I have long been a long journey
I thought: "Hey, hey say
Is anyone home? "
I Stairs "was on
Nearly one Feelin
Well, the farmers came
He must be crazy to think that it's me
He looked at me now
And stuck a gun in my gut
I fell
I'm on my knees to
Says: "I dig farmers
Please shoot me, please! "
He snagged a gun
Began to cry
"You Toraverinserusuman
"I heard about
I said: "No," I said. "No, no!
I know it's true that Dr.
I am clean-cut kid
And I said: "The same can go to college
Then his daughter
Name Rita
He looked like he was out of step
Radoruchevita
I immediately tried to cool it
Her father and
And I told him
Well, he was too old
It's not what their doctors. "
Tell me what you know about the farm? "
"I was born."
"Good Hope at the bottom
Clean Well my "Well, nails
I think that I knew to lie
"I think you're tired"
According to him, a little unfair
I said: "Yes, a million miles
Operation today
He said that he gave me a bed for you. "
Under the slab
One rate
And now you're sleeping
Do not touch my daughter to touch you
Cow in the morning, "milk
I have a rat "was like a dream
When I heard the clothes
Rita was
How Rukkintonipakinsu
He said: "You take a shower, say?
I said: "introduces you to the door
I said: 'Oh, no, no!
I said: "First, it has been updated
I knew that the separation
But I do not know how
He
"Now you take a shower do you like?"
Well, I can not leave
While the old man followed me
Because I had already promised
I think the cow's milk
I spoke
He is a very strange attitude
So I cried
"I like the beard and Fiderukasutoro"
Rita seemed to anger
But he was sidelined
As he came charging down the stairs
"I heard you talking about?" He
"I as president of the State Council Fiderukasutoro.
I said: "I think you heard right
Vending machines, as he shook
And I can have all your
Rita mumbled something
'Bout her mother on the hill
Handful of Ice Box on strike
He said that he would kill me
I left the door
In two seconds flat
"You are a traitor
Medical Rat Rotten Communist "
Well, he threw a Reader's Digest
In my head, I did not follow
I did a somersault
I got a gun want to see how
Crashed through the window
While a hundred miles
Planting full blast
Flowers in my garden
Rita "Come back!" He said.
When he started weight
Sun Came
And I went on the street
Well, I think back
Spelling
Rita can not be separated
Motel and got a job
He is still waiting for me
Permanent secrets
He wants me to let
F.B.I.
I romp and stomp me
Thanks, I'll mess around
Without freedom of expression
I can be in the swamp"
