The title says it all. A couple days ago, one of my foreign language teachers saw that a few students were using Google Translate to help them with their assignments during distance learning. In response, they sent us some videos where Disney song lyrics were translated into multiple layers of Google Translate and back then played and compared to the originals.
I figured we could do the same thing, but with wikiHow-related phrases.
The Rules are Simple:
You pick a wikiHow related phrase, for example lets say New Article Boost. Put the phrase through 20 layers of Google Translate. (1 layer is where you translate it into a random language, then click the switch button at the top of the translator window.) Most times I have only gotten significant results after about 40 layers, but we’ll see who can come up with the funniest ones with only half of that! Good luck!
