Yeah…
So, share what you typed in what language and what came up

Type na na na repeatedly in both Igbo and Georgian

@yeetus

Or Somali

Yesssss it’s weirdest in Somali I think

@yeetus

….Yeah

@fruitbatsandearlgrey

I did the Somali trick a while ago.

I can't remember the exact words but it was something like "Another dimension", and it translated to, "At the moment, he is on his way."

Scared the living crap out of me…

I've seen a few, but I can't remember any. Rip.

I think if you separate words into two letters with spaces in between, and translate it into a certain language, you can sometimes get weird translations.

@fruitbatsandearlgrey

That's the Somali trick I was just talking about! Let me try and find the screenshots I took…

@murphysgirl

Type 'che le you ha ka ma' into Google Translate. Then translate it from Southern Sotho. This is hilarious.

@yeetus

…That's not creepy

@murphysgirl

I just thought it was strange. And funny.

@yeetus

….Somewhat

@murphysgirl

pyth ag alaa mahana taw ha waiotew hweh amaha wahana ij iwa ehwa
Put that in and it gets strange

@yeetus

…OK

@fruitbatsandearlgrey

If you put "owo uwu uwu owo" into Igbo it becomes "human trafficking".

Oh my god yes

@fruitbatsandearlgrey

This isn't really creepy, but I once ran my novel through Google Translate one paragraph at a time and it was hilariously nonsensical. I can send some excerpts sometime.

@yeetus

Nice!

@spoder

Typed ‘na’ a bunch of times into Somali and got « Nothing is too much for us, but we do not know how to do it. ». Can I get a poster with that on it

@yeetus

You can keep doing na's and it's super creepy and it changes with every letter

If you put "owo uwu uwu owo"
Try translating this phrase from Somali to English too.

You get:

@yeetus

Also "go og le" repeated in Somali
