Language Translation

Post by Booknerd »

Since there seems to be a large community of bilingual speakers here, let's play a language game (my friend taught me this game)

So one person starts with a phrase in a language. Then someone else translates it into a different language. Then the next person translates the translated phrase into another language. Keep translating from one language to the next, and then after 10 translations, use google translate to convert to english and see what comes up. Here's an example:
English: I like cheesy pasta
Korean: 나는 치즈 파스타를 좋아한다
Spanish: Me gusta la pasta de queso
Latin: Et sicut caseum crustulum
Chinese: 和奶酪醬一樣
Spanish: Igual que la salsa de queso
(the pattern continues and then)
English: Same as cheese sauce

It's interesting to see what comes up. I hope I explained the rules clearly. You can use google translate to translate phrases.

I will start. 저는 바이올린 좋아요 (Korean)
