Testing the Google Translator

Washroom sign in the Netherlands

Well dear readers, I thought I would do a consumer test and try out the translations we get from the Google translator thingy.


So I tried out translating a normal everyday phrase in Swedish,

This phrase may be useful to you at some point in time, when you are traveling abroad and cannot find a washroom.

The Swedish phrase is "Stå still, din djävel, så jag kan pissa i din ficka!"

The Google translator tells us it is in;  
Afrikaans: Staan stil, jy baster, so ek kan piss in jou sak!
Arabic: لا تزال قائمة ، أيها الوغد ، حتى أتمكن من شخ في جيبك
Bulgarian: Стойка все още, копеле, за да мога да пикая в джоба!

Chinese (simplified): 站住，你这个混球，这样我就可以在你的口袋里撒尿！
Danish: Stå stille, dit svin, så jeg kan pisse i din lomme! 
Dutch: Sta stil, klootzak, dus ik kan pissen in je zak!

English: Stand still, you bastard, so I can piss in your pocket!
Finnish: Seiso, paskiainen, joten en voi kusta taskussa!
French: Ne bougez pas, salaud, si je peux pisser dans votre poche!

Gaelic: Seas fós, bastaird tú, agus mar sin is féidir liom a piss i do phóca! 
German: Steh still, du Bastard, so kann ich in der Tasche pissen!
Greek: Ακίνητοι, μπάσταρδε, ώστε να μπορώ να κατουρήσεις στην τσέπη σας!

Hebraic: התיצבו, ממזר, אז אני יכול להשתין בכיס שלך 
Hindi: अभी भी खड़े हो जाओ तुम कमीने, है, तो मैं अपनी जेब में पेशाब कर सकते हैं!
Hungarian: Állni, te szemét, így tudok ázni a zsebében!

Italian: Stare fermi, bastardo, così posso pisciare in tasca!
Japanese: まだスタンドには、野郎ので、私はあなたのポケットの中に小便をすることができます！
Korean: 가만히있어,이 자식아, 그래서 귀하의 주머니에 소변을 수 있습니다!

Malay: Masih berdiri, bajingan, jadi saya boleh kencing di saku anda!
Persian: ثابت بمونه ، شما حرامزاده ، پس من نمی توانم در جیب شما شاش 
Portuguese: Fique parado, sacana, então eu posso mijar no seu bolso!

Romanian: Stai liniştit, nemernicule, aşa că am să fac pipi în buzunar!
Russian: Стой, сволочь, так что я могу мочиться в вашем кармане!
Serbian: Станите Ипак, копиле, тако да могу да пиша у вашем џепу!

Spanish: Quédese quieto, cabrón, así que puedo mear en su bolsillo 
Swahili: Simameni, wewe bastard, hivyo siwezi piss mfukoni yako!
Thai: ยังยืนนิ่ง, คุณลูกไม่มีพ่อเพื่อให้สามารถปัสสาวะในกระเป๋าของคุณ

Turkish: kıpırdamayınız, seni piç, bu yüzden cebinize piss olabilir! 
Vietnamese: Đứng yên, bạn bastard, để tôi có thể piss trong túi của bạn!

Welsh: Aros yn ei unfan, bastard chi, felly gallaf piss yn eich poced! 

Well, I must say the Afrikaans, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Italian and Spanish look like accurate translations to me, so perhaps it´s not as bad as I have been thinking.

But lets withhold final judgment till we get my readers votes in also.

WOW What Happened?

And 22:40 I got an e-mail telling me another New country: Uganda

Was there a program about me on BBC World or something? Suddenly the world seems to have found me...

Well my dear new readers, however you found me, you are very welcome! Please come again and again and again!

I usually only have around 200-250 page-views, right now I am up to 716 and the day isn´t over wooohooo! 10 PM local time, and nowv it´s up to 766...

FINAL UPDATE
Awesome the final page-view number for January 1st, 2011, stopped at 829. Totally amazing for this blog!

At Fride´s Tomorrow

One of the friendliest venues in SecondLife and the music is always great!

Happy New Year

I wish you all a wonderful 2011, but remember this is just really another day in the rest of your life.

There is actually nothing magical or mysterious about January 1st at 12:00 AM. It´s a special day only for the nations using the Gregorian calendar. The fact of the matter is that other cultures and religions have their New Year celebrations and ceremonies spread out almost all through the calendar-year.

We are free to choose any given moment to make resolutions for improvement or to take steps to change our lives to the better. As the commercials say "Just do it!".

May you be safe, free, happy and loved!

You Are Never Alone

I have posted this one before, but it´s speaking to me again - so please enjoy! Mauro Scocco doing what he does best. Ars always went for the rhythm, I always go for the lyrics and the song. 

You are never alone
by Mauro Scocco (almost direct translation to English by me)

When the storm blows, when the bridges burn
When hope and meaning, just disappear
When you feel small, and when no one is there
You will never be alone anyway, as long as I am here

I can walk all night, take a plane or train
It doesn´t matter where you are
I´ll get there - anyway

You are never alone, as long as I breathe
As long as my heart - can beat
You are never alone, never forget it
I'll do anything for you, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know

If those you trust fail you, if your dream fell apart
Then I can remind you of how much you're worth
That the fear you feel, it is not you
And how scary as it may seem, it will fade away

I can walk all night, take a plane or train
It doesn´t matter where you are
I´ll get there - anyway

You are never alone, as long as I breathe
As long as my heart - can beat
You are never alone, never forget it
I'll do anything for you, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know

So when you no longer cope, then I´ll cope for us both
When you cannot find a way out, I´ll find one anyway
You have given me so much over the years that have passed
The biggest thing one can get, you have given it to me

You are never alone, as long as I breathe
As long as my heart - can beat
You are never alone, never forget it
I'll do anything for you, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know

And I know that you know

New Year´s Resolution

Well it´s the end of 2010, high time to start thinking about my new year´s resolution.

What possible commitment can I make on reforming any habit or to an advantageous lifestyle change?

I smoke, but I am sure as hell not quitting that, at least not on New Years Day or the 5th of January. That will come when I am ready - someday. I love my job and my colleagues, so I a sticking with that too. But I could get more organized I suppose, both in my real life and in SecondLife. I could also try to get less irritated and grumpy, but thats just me being me and is sort of cute, or so my mother says because she knows it never really lasts that long.

OK, I will stick to the getting more organized I guess...

I hereby vow to get better organized in my real life, as a blogger and in my SecondLife. This commitment goes into effect on New Year´s day 2011.

Real life messes, this is the last warning! If you don´t go away when I look at you and think about you I´ll start spending an hour everyday to get rid of you.

SecondLife Inventory, I am not allowing you to grow anymore. You are going into boxes and folders or getting deleted. All the old dead landmarks, all the ugly stuff I never wear, all the shit I am carrying around without even knowing I have it,  out you go!

Happy Third Anniversary

Congratulations "Tinas Universum", you set an example for the rest of us!
