This text was originally written in English, then the machine translation in English, Spanish, and then back to English.

The question is - can you read?

This text have been written originally in English, then machine-translated into Swedish, then Spanish and then back to English.

I used the translator one time when I was emailing with someone in Germany. Apparently I said some pretty wild things because I ended up over there for 5 weeks. applause applause


Naw, I don't think that I would chance it again.frustrated
