Something Weird About Google Translate

WOW, shocking. I really can't believe this lol.

I did see that on a friend's FB profile too few weeks ago...

Went straight to google translate and tried it. But the translation was correct.
My friend insisted that he was right, until i went to his place, showed him that it was a correct translation on my laptop...

UNTIL he showed me the opposite results on his machine. On his laptop, he got the wrong translation. On mine, the translation was 100% correct. and we were using the same Wi-Fi at his place...

Weird or what ?

The only explanation i came up with is that my laptop is built in the U.S, while his is assembled in china and designed to be used in the Middle East... (Perhaps google insists on telling us -we the arabs- that Israel will NOT disappear) :P

It's the opposite, Google translate show's "Hezbollah wont finish" and "Israel will finish"

because translate depends a lot on people's manual corrections.. If you hover/click on the translated words, you can switch to other options, and even add your own translation. so probably lots of hezbofans did that and chose "lan" , so now it has priority in this sentence. LOL @ the ppl who did that though...Geez

Yeah i got the same translation.

Bing Translator:
Israel will finish:سيتم إنهاء إسرائيل
Hizbollah will finish:سيتم إنهاء حزب الله

Here's a google translate easter egg:

go to Google Translate, set it to translate from german to turkish and type 15 ä -letters!!

Set the Google translator for 'German to German' translation.

Copy and paste the following into the translate box:
pv zk pv pv zk pv zk kz zk pv pv pv zk pv zk zk pzk pzk pvzkpkzvpvzk kkkkkk bsch

Click Listen, and have a blast :D

@everyone: This thread is about Google Translate, the weird thing that happened with the translation, and other potential Easter eggs.

Political opinions about Israel, Hizbollah and the rest will be automatically deleted.
Help me keep the forum clean, please.

I tested this a few days ago after some sensationalist Facebook status updates, and found that the translation fluctuates. So there's no consistency. It's Translate being all beta.

guys, you have to check this out, one of my friends posted this as a status on facebook:

Do the following !!!
1) go to google translate
2) type in "Who said to sell pepsi for Rs.65?"
3) translate English to Arabic
4) Copy the Arabic version
5) choose translation from Arabic to English
6) and the truth will be unleashed!!!!

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAH!!!!!!!

There are plenty of those. They're bugs. Try writing any country's name followed by will die and see the translation, then write Lebanon will die and see the translation. We rule!

try this from english to arabic: i spend all my time on Facebook.
PS make sure that the "F" is capital and put a point at the end and then try without a point.
i think those things are like vandalism in Wikipedia.
the best thing is the beatbox posted by MegaCool.
