I have had unnerving/embarrassing (for them)/hilarious experiences with google translate.

If you want to look up Finnish words I suggest sanakirja.org
»isi« or »iskä« would make it sound more childish then, if it is what you are going for.

Nice! And here's another post! I wonder how long it is going to take before Elysia forgoes her stubbornness and realises that she isn't in a simulation but in the real world.


She seems awfully persistent!

I literally laughed out loud about the pope thing. Google translate is really silly :p

Yeah she is. She's probably going to freak out once she notice that she isn't in Kansas Ryton anymore.

I remember using Google translate once for a language class. I don't remember exactly what the assignment was but I remember making a presentation of how crappy google translate can be. The story translated by google was by far a much more interesting compared to the one translated by hand, if not a little bizarre.

I think Elysia's quite adorable this way, she is dead serious but can not be taken so? XD

There is a funny game in which you'd google translate something let's say from English to Finnish and then google translate the translation back into English. With more commonly used languages (with google translate) like German and French it is not that funny.

This is for example what I got for the above text using Persian as the mid-language:
I remember once using Google Translate for another language class. My task was exactly what I remember making a presentation of how the default Google Translate can remember. Translated by Google to be a much more interesting story than the one translated by hand, if not a little weird.

and using Finnish:
I remember once Google translate language class. I do not remember exactly what the assignment was, but I remember doing a presentation on how the poor can not translate olla.Tarina by Google, this was clearly a lot more interesting than the one built by hand, if not a little weird.

What about »My task was exactly what I remember«?
...or »google translate language class«...

*deeply amused*

<.< Now I know where my grades went for my language homework. I used Google translate to help me do my comprehension passages.

Sorry, I've been writing a ton lately. Started both a music review blog and a writing workshop with my friends last week for our poetry and fiction. My post is halfway done though. Will have it up tonight.

No worries. I'm curious in your music blog. Mind giving me the link so I can check it out?

It looks like you've trapped Elysia in a corner now. Hmm, I have a few ideas that would be fun to do. The question now is which one to do with...

Oh and before I forget, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JLtW!!!

Thanks so much =) And yea, I'm eager to see what Elysia does!

I'm going to link to my blog in my sig. There's not too much content yet, but new albums are coming out all the time so it should grow pretty quickly.

Aaaah, happy birthday Jen... or belated already?

Kirra said Oh no, not fun at all. Do you mind me asking what caused your shoulder pain?

I have a chronic case of stiff shoulder (have no idea what the muscle is called), sometimes the knot causes me more pain than on other days, sometimes there is two of them. Sometimes it needs physiotherapy, sometimes injection and sometimes proper exercise. ^^
And of course it does not help that I have to do almost all the housework by myself... and am at a desk most of the daytime.

I can not help the feeling that the Seppänens so far sound like the perfectly clueless family amidst the Armageddon. (Since all other characters have been a lot more actively involved.
