Google Translate Fail

_cokwr: Find something in a foreign language and use Google Translate and laugh about how awful it is. Its pretty easy to do if you use Google Chrome. Just go to a site in another language and select the translate to English button when it pops up (options - under the hood - check the box that says to offer translations). I think you can also use the main google.com to translate pages as well. If its a language you know, give an explanation of what it should be and list possible reasons it got messed up. , _cpzh4: On/In the Web, _cre1l: http://rigsbytuj.blogspot.com/2011/11/google-translate-fail.html, _chk2m: Steven Q.
