Quickie: Example of a translation went wrong.

Hiya visitors of my tiny blog :D Happy Chinese New Year! ^.^

If you noticed; I haven’t posted any new year greeting or new post about the celebration this year. Will get to that perhaps in the next post.

Anyway, here’s something that was sent to me by a friend -

性年快乐。性想色成。大鸡大粒。湿湿乳溢。精液满堂。鸡香入浴,黏黏有遺。大弟揮春

Now, those of you who can read chinese will know that it’s a new year greetings but for half-banana’s like me (can speak; cannot read/write) I depend heavily on online translators (Google Translate) to get me through the day.

This is one example of a translation going awry :P

性年快乐。性想色成。大鸡大粒。湿湿乳溢。精液满堂。鸡香入浴,黏黏有遺。大弟揮春

is translated to

Of the Happy. Think of a color. Big big grain. Taxi galactorrhea. Semen packed. Chicken-bathing, Niannian have survived. Dadi Hui-chun

Semen packed??? Chicken-bathing??? 8O

If it’s not because of the “dadi hui-chun” at the end… I wouldn’t have guessed it so fast… LOL

    hahaha.. seems like the reason for the weird translation is because some of the chinese characters used have the same sound but is not the appropriate choice of word hence the weird results. It’s still funny though… hahaha.. :P
