Damn it, google translator did a perfect translation of my previous post. I guess I'll have to think of something more complicated.


E portanto, obsequiosamente peço para que, caso tal possibilidade esta nos confins de tua capacidade, para traduzir esta oração criada no presente momento.


There we go. Quite a few errors right there, should it be translated. Got to love the double-meaning and implied words portuguese has.
"And therefore, I humbly ask, should this possibility be within the limits of your capabilities, you translate this phrase I created in this moment"?
Did you actually use a translator? Because I passed it through one and it took "phrase" as "prayer" and didn't place an "I"

No, I just hacked it together. I assume I got it right? :-P

There's two kinds of performance reviews: the one you make they don't read, the one they make whilst they sharpen their daggers

Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

Yes. I made it mostly to see if I could confuse translators, it's not really a complex sentence.

Urist, President has immigrated to your fortress!
Urist, President mandates the Dwarven Bill of Rights.

Cue magma.
Ah, the Magma Carta...

Reminded me very much of various cants or vernaculars.  In particular a Liverpudlian one (or so I knew it as), which had a certain amount of extraneous syllables inserted into words, in a similar way to the above.  (I could understand it, personally, but could never work out how to speak it reliably.)

Was tempted to try a smattering of Polari, but most of what I know is Round The Horne-inspired.
