Wrote Andrew Sylvester of this website, "It uses Google to translate any phrase from English to 56 other languages and back again, with often funny, usually bizarre, sometimes even insightful/ironic results. My favorite example so far is actually someone complaining about the site: 'OK, I'm sorry to be the curmudgeon but I get the translator part, I'm just not seeing the funny part.'

... 56 translations later we get:

'Oh, sorry, I know, I think it sounds great.'"

What I like is the identifying description at the tippy top of the browser, which reads: "Funny Translator โ€” Formerly Bad Translator"

Does that mean that's OK to change the name of that dark Abel Ferrara film starring Harvey Keitel from "The Bad Lieutenant" to "The Funny Lieutenant?"

Maybe it loses something in translation.
