This website amuses me greatly.

http://www.conveythis.com/translation.php

It translates any english phrase you put in and puts it through about 54 languages. It's pretty funny to see what comes out in the end, like this one:

"Hey look a UFO!" ...54 translations later we get: "Frisbee, please?"

:lol:

:lol:

This is great! I tried several - some weren't too bad but this was the best

What Goes up Must Come Down translated after 10 languages becomes:

The necessary Consequences

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Haha..."A bird in hand is worth two in the bush" becomes "Moreover, the debate about birds" after 25 translations.

"A watched pot never boils" turns into the rather cryptic, "Look around" after 25.

I have been having some back pain off and on for a few weeks now and yesterday I went to the Urgent Care Clinic and it looks like I have a kidney infection... yay me!... :P

and for some strange reason I didn't have to pay a copay, it was supposed to be $35 :blink:

I've had that happen before Marylin...don't be surprised if they send you a bill for it.

What will happen is, they will bill your insurance, and realize they forgot the copay because insurance won't pay it. Then they will send you a bill.

yeah that is what I am thinking... I did ask the guy at the desk if I had to pay something and he said no.... there is a big sign on the desk saying copay must be paid at time of service so I am pretty sure they checked with my insurance if I had to pay a copay.. :unsure:

this same thing happens with my hubby's prescription.. we get it filled at Walgreens and there is supposed to be a 10 dollar copay for generics but every time we don't have to pay anything and we have never gotten a bill.. this has been going on for about a year now...

I got a little bored and was playing with that bad translator site and put in "every cloud has a silver lining" and 54 translations later it came up with......" new employees!" :lol: I guess if you think about it..it fits! At least for the employer...

I also had to put in "glass half empty" to get "glass half full!" lol My my this thing is hilarious!

Ha - try to follow this one . . . "A stitch in time saves nine" becomes "and saves time gap" after 10 translations and "building footprint" after 25 times :lol:

Wow, another earthquake.

That one was really weird. At first I thought my head was spinning then my mom in law was like "Stephanie, earthquake!"

It lasted a good 10 seconds.

That was a bit freaky.
