Bing Translate

ThePhan: Sometimes Bing Translate shows me some very confusing conversations on my overseas friends' statuses.
ThePhan: Original post: "I tried to cook a new dish tonight. It turned out to be a non-major titles. Compensates with Thai peanut and a Hitchcock-roller for dessert."
ThePhan: Comment: "Have nothing to do. You get to watch hitchcock?"
ThePhan: Poster's response: "Sure, you're welcome! You say much! One cannot listen to everything."
ThePhan: Commenter's response: "Okay, I stand after the brushing of teeth."
* ThePhan is not sure what any of that means.
* Sentynel scratches head
Sentynel: What language is it in?
ThePhan: Swedish.
Sentynel: Is Google translate any more intelligible?
ThePhan: Lemme see.
ThePhan: "Non-major titles" -> "non-salty treat"?
Sentynel: LOL
Sentynel: Close enough!
ThePhan: "I stand" -> "I'm going"
iwpg: LOL
Sentynel: That's.. completely the opposite. Nice work, Bing.
ThePhan: I think the commenter invited himself over to the poster's house to watch a Hitchcock movie after he brushes his teeth. No idea what this "one cannot listen to everything" business is.
wintermute: Maybe you should just learn Swedish.
