From English to Japanese and Back Again… and Again
Stick with me here.
I went to this site and inserted this tweet:
I’ve learned many things having this hole in my back, one of which is that showering at night is more relaxing then doing so in the morning.
I hit find equilibrium and that’s when the magic happened. What’s equilibrium, you ask? Equilibrium is achieved when the English text is translated into Japanese and then back into English without any of the words changing.
Enjoy a few gems complete with wittyless commentary:
I have behind me a lot, but this hole is a learned one, for a shower to relax more at night and morning.
I do have a lot behind me, but I usually don’t tweet about that. The hole, however, is a learned one. In the short month it’s been hanging out on my back, the hole has picked up a complete Masters of Economics. Impressive, I know.
I’m more relaxed, a lot of showers in the evening and the morning has a hole in the back of this research.
I’m not really sure where the research came into play, but I am much more relaxed after doing some. Or it. I’m not really sure what the proper pronoun is there. Taking a lot of shower in the evening and the morning tends to do that to you. Regardless, I’ve got a whole in the back of this research I need to attend to. Or is it too? I think I need to take another shower.
After 21 translation steps, equilibrium was found.
I have a hole in the back of this study, the number of showers in the evening, this morning, is to relax.
Apparently, the hole in my back has completed it’s Doctoral Thesis and determined that after taking many showers in the evening, the purpose of this morning is to relax. Or something like that. I really have no idea. All I do know is translating things back in forth makes for some really hilarious results and something worth putting here. So, yeah. There you go.
Thanks to Oh My Seven for the link.
Oh man. I heart Translation Party SO HARD. I love the commentary.
Also: Wow, your site looks amazing. I don’t think I’ve checked it out in a while. Love it.
