i'm sure we've all played with google translate before to make hilarious mistranslations, translating sentences back and forth between languages.

well this site http://www.conveythis.com/translation.php translates your text back and forth 54 times between different languages!

examples:

Original text:

"Lady Gaga is really ugly"

...54 translations later we get:

"It was a horrible woman."


Original text:

"american teenagers are the most stupid teens in the world because they dress like werewolves."

...54 translations later we get:

"Please enter the United States and world hunger."


also sorry to all the normal american teens i didn't mean that

Original text:

"Chinese people scare me."

...54 translations later we get:

"China is a big problem."


Original text:

"teamliquid is the best website in the universe"

...54 translations later we get:

"A world class city"

Haha, really fun website.

"Rabbits jump higher than me" becomes "Haas jump over me."

Also, both of the sentences "I do not like ham" and "I do not dislike ham" yield "I hate bacon."

And its amazing what they do even with easily recognizable proper nouns.
"Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune"
became
"Thursday 3:01 years, uranus, Neptune and Thursday Friday and Saturday"

It's also pretty funny to watch the actual steps they take.

"How now brown cow?"
I got "Six storms?" at the end, but for like 15 entries in a row, it just kept on saying "Sex storm? Sex storm? Sex storm? Sex storm?..."
