Since every one else is doing it, here's another example of Google Translate screwing up its job:

The man who has control over water, has the ability to give and take life and thus is a god.
To Chinese (Simp.): 谁拥有控水,有付出与收获生活的能力,因此,人是神。
To English: Who has control of water, have the ability to give and take life, therefore, man is God.

To Arabic:

It seems to handle simple sentences in a okay manner. Let's see how well it can to take a more challenging one:
Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.
To German: Lassen Sie keine Schulden ausstehen, mit Ausnahme der anhaltenden Schulden, einander zu lieben, denn wer liebt anderen hat das Gesetz erfüllt.

To Chinese: 没有债务,除了彼此相爱,因为他谁爱另一个就完全了律法。

To Punjabi: ਇਕ ਹੋਰ ਨੂੰ ਪਿਆਰ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਜੋ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਕਾਨੂੰਨ ਨੂੰ ਪੂਰਾ ਕੀਤਾ ਹੈ, ਕਿਉਕਿ, ਇੱਕ ਦੂਜੇ ਨੂੰ ਪਿਆਰ ਕਰਨ ਦੀ ਨੂੰ ਛੱਡ ਕੇ ਕੋਈ ਕਰਜ਼ਾ,.
To English: Love for one another, that is to fulfill the law, because, except to love one another, no debt.
To Latin: Unus amor, hoc est legem implere, quod est, nisi ut ínvicem diligátis, non debeo.

Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.
to

It seems Translate thinks polygamy is against the law but prefers it nonetheless...

Cinefactus, should mods and myself snip out obvious machine translations in translation requests?

It is a difficult question. I usually try to avoid altering any post. On the other hand I don't think it is a good idea to have the mistranslation archived by Google as then it can become 'truth'.

I know what it doesn't translate to:
"What you give is what you get".

You've already received a perfectly good translation of that phrase on this forum.
"quis vos tribuo est quis vos adepto" seems like some nonsense produced by a machine translator.

Oh, InterTran is back! That website is fun to play around with, but that's really all it's good for.

I have put this here, because it is both hilarious and a horrible warning.

Rather than meaning f*** it, it actually means, "I will f*** her up the arse".

If you have tattooed yourself with this mistranslation, please feel free to upload a picture.

So, while watching a video on a cybersecurity contest, I noticed that one of the announcer's shirts had some Latin written on it...:vomit:

I mean I'd imagine that's deliberately wrong as a parody of "all your base are belong to us"; the phrasings certainly look similar

I could tell straight away that it was meant to mean that, but it seemed like the sort of garbage Google would produce so I figured I'd post it.
