Schinckel.net

From my referrer logs, I noticed someone had used Google Translate to translate some of my site into Brazilian, or something (pl-BR, IIRC).-Portugese (pt-BR) (Thanks Bob). I don’t speak, or read this language at all, but I have done a bit of German and French at school and University. So, I thought it might be fun to translate a few of the pages from my site into these languages on the fly, and see how accurate the translation engine is. It seems pretty good. Highlights for me were:

• Himmelsbevorzugungen, wo Tugend anordnet. Und was würde dieses sein, aber den Tiger malen und schnitzen den Swan?
• Notenfußball & le football de contact
• Je suis un professeur de conception et technologie, y compris la conception assistée par ordinateur, l’électronique et une variété d’autres choses.
• Comme un biscuit de fortune, seulement sans fortune, et pas un biscuit.
