Re: Bad Translator!

"Hi"
54 translations later...
"Travel"

If you continue "What is wrong with this translator?" for the full 54 translations, you get:
"Or what happened at the door."

"Hello"
54 translations later...
"Search"

Re: Bad Translator!

Wait, best one ever!  I quote a Fawlty Towers scene:

"Manuel, there is too much butter on those trays."
"Que?  No, not 'on those trays.' Uno, dos, tres!"

Becomes:

Manuel said, "No No. 3 cups Secretariat of the United Nations rejected the rest!"
