I love how google is confused about my female character. It calls her a He and then a She at the same time...Also Bjorn seems to be having some mental breakdown or something xD

[Iris-Grimoire]

Oh dear. Let's try a TON because five wasn't enough, English-Somali-Japanese-Russian-Welsh-Korean-English.

Original:
The magical kingdom of Aeolia is threatened regularly by Dark Lords: evil sorcerers that bring destruction upon the isolated floating islands. The latest evildoer – the king’s twin brother – endured the battles against the Great Heroes Elise, Veriesin, Audrey and Stormsever with ease, until he made a grave mistake and turned himself in, out of sorrow.

Because of his uncanny powers and great knowledge, Prince Mortimer was spared, and the outcast barely lives to keep his adopted children and retainer safe. But the disappearance of the legendary Elise has made the world defenseless against a new Dark Lord, and Veriesin enlists the ex-villain to make up for his crimes with heroism. Can even black magic be used for great deeds?

---

real:
The magical kingdom of Aeolia is constantly threatened by the evil witch Black Road destroying the floating island. The last villain, the King Twins, easily survived battles against the great heroes Alice, Belesin, Audrey and Storm Bar, made major mistakes and succumbed to grief.

Because of his magical power and good knowledge, Prince Mortimer fled, and few foreigners lived to protect his adopted children and guardians. However, the absence of the legendary Eliza prevented the world from defending himself against the new dark lord, and Beliesin bound the former evil man to heal his heroic crimes. Can black magic be used for big things?

Alright, Stormy is now Storm Bar. Funnily enough, a good chunk of the second part is actually a bit coherent, about until "heroic crimes". Also, Elise got translated to two different things, somehow.

Original
In the distant future, Earth's destruction has led to the space colonization age. A totalitarian empire by the name of Blue Sun rules over the cosmos. While mankind exists among its alien neighbors mostly in harmony, a sub-species of humans known to the masses as space pirates has evolved. This supernatural human is feared among even the strongest of creatures. Blue Sun's number one priority? Destroy the space pirate threat at any cost so peace and order can be maintained.

This tells the story of a particular space pirate on the tail of a bounty hunter. Unknown to him, he is about to get dragged into a conflict of galactic proportions. The story begins in the skies above the planet Gar.

After going through Japanese, Spanish and Greek:
In the distant future, the destruction of the Earth led to an era of space colonization. A totalitarian empire called the Blue Sun rules the universe. Humans exist in almost harmony with their foreign neighbors, but the human subspecies known to the public as space pirates have evolved. This supernatural man is afraid even of the most powerful creatures. What are Blue Sun's top priorities? Destroy the threat of space pirates at any cost so that you can maintain peace and order.

This is the story of a specific space pirate in the tail of a generosity hunter. Unknown to him, he is going to come into a galactic analogy. The story begins on the planet Gar.

Makes for quite the opposite story

Space Pirate | Tapas

[Llyrel]

Okay, I love this game :'D

I... honestly lost track of the languages I translated my blurb into, but somewhere in the mix there were definitely Swedish, Finnish, Chinese, Japanese, French and -I think- Ukrainian?

This was the first result I got:

A series of mysterious murders have taken place in Milford, Pennsylvania. Former cop-turned-hunter Adrian Webster suspects the perpetrator may be the cult that ruined his life 10 years ago. Accidentally saving a drunken musician and forcing him to adopt a strange girl from Warwolf, Adrian realizes that he is more likely to put his life in danger than he thought...

And, well... the first part wasn't even too wrong, I guess. But then we get to the second part and... oh boy :'D no wonder Adrian is questioning his life choices: I would do that too, if I were to end up forcing random drunk musicians to adopt strange girls from Warwolf (?!)... :'D

But it doesn't end here! Because at some point while reading the comments I saw Lating being mentioned and decided to put my blurb through that as well. The result was this gem:

A series of mysterious who will kill you, and taken in Milford, Pennsylvania. Former hunter turned gloomy Adrian ECB, and believes himself to be religious, who lost his life 10 years ago. He sweet girl, and it is free to use Warwolfe in Adrian finds, and I thought they were drunk man, and in another accident that gave his life...

...Honestly, I'm almost tempted to use this one as my blurb instead :'D

Original one for comparison:
A series of mysterious murders shake the town of Milford, Pennsylvania. Adrian Webster, former police officer turned hunter, suspects that the culprit could be the same cult that ruined his life ten years ago. After accidentally saving the life of a drunk musician and finding himself forced to accept the help of a strange werewolf girl, Adrian finds out that there may be more lives at stake than he thought…

[Freemints30]

My results: My story is now in Wisconsin, we now dealing with electricity and every one is into the a new upcoming show and the electricity.

Something strange is happening in East Wisconsin. Axel even said she had been here for less than a day. The static electricity that appears on radios and televisions, and the appeal of some residents with this static electricity. Even strangers ... the show is coming. This book can guide her to the answer and bring all the results that follow.

Eh sounds accurate

[Undertaildoof34]

Hmm, i feel the theme of this thread is google translated hellfire sang by Jonathan young...

[oliveoly]

"Ups and Downs is the story of the beautiful angel Michael, who is sent to earth to help people and balance the devil's axis. Unfortunately, heaven didn't give him a place to live or a job of his own, and Stephen and his friends couldn't just rest.

Speaking of Stephen, Mikhail could only love him."

I'm a bit disappointed as I was expecting something more innaccurate but I love how it translated the characters' names into english XD and how google translate finds Mikhail Beautiful...

original for comparison:
"Ups and Downs is the story of not-so-good-an-angel Mikhail as he is sent to Earth to help humans and kick demon butt. Unfortunately for him, Heaven did not provide him with housing, or any actual job, and his roommate Stefan won’t let him slack off that easy.

Speaking of Stefan, Mikhail might just end up falling for him."

and here's the comic:

Ups and Downs | Tapas

[ble]

I only know Spanish and English...so idk if the translation changed much.

Google translated from English to Spanish- then to English again:

Mi-cha is an outcast in her city. She was treated like a witch, just because she was different. All that changed the day she was forced to leave the planet with a space pirate to travel to the galaxy. This is a girls love story with adult content. It also contains action and drama.

Original:

Mi-cha is an outcast in her town. She was treated as a witch, just because she was different. All that changed the day she is forced to leave the planet with a space pirate to travel to the galaxy. This is a Girls love story with mature content. It also contains action and drama.

Baphomet's Sheep V2 (GL) | Tapas

Only difference is they changed "town" with "city and "adult content" with "mature content"

I think google translate just fixed my shit.

[Minijulietty]

This is funny! as I am from another country, I know the struggle of having to use google translate for my summary! I really want to flip the table because of frustration!

Google Translated:

A series of unfortunate incidents have risen not only in the country but around the world with the pandemic. Starting with Ella Smith, follow her story as she strives to catch up with the changes and discover her personality.

Original:
A series of mishap rise not in the country but in the whole world where people are scared and confused with what is happening as the pandemic started. Starting with Ellie, follow her story when she struggles to adjust with the rapid changes while she looks deeply into herself as she feels lost to what she is or to what is the purpose of her life.

It's actually confusing how to describe the meaning of life in my mother tongue and it came out as "Personality" in Google Translate

That's it! Check out my series!

I'm so gay over GL! I wanted to try it but same-sex relationship is still not open in my country.

[Phantomlight]

So this synopsis went on a journey from English to Spanish to French to Russian to Japanese to English!

Here's the Google Translate version:

As you may have heard, life is fun. You spend your days really well until you fall in love with your best friend who is already in love with someone else. To make matters worse, he makes things worse by acting like jerk, most of the time, to hide the fact that he loves her. I think this is the story of my life, but it's not half as dead yet.

A fox who is in crazy love with true love, and a stubborn and capricious wolf who can't tell his loved one the right thing.

Updated every Saturday.

Here's the Original:

I bet you heard this one before but life is funny. You go about your days all well and good until you fall in love with your best friend who's already in love with someone else. And what's worse is you make things worse by being a complete jerk to him most of the time just to hide the fact that you like him. I'd say that's the story of my life, but I'm not dead yet, so it's not even the half of it.

A foolishly in love fox who just wants to be with his one true love and a willful, moody wolf who just can't say the right things to the one he loves.

Updates Every Saturday.

I find it funny that google translate made my BL story into a straight love story by writing "her" instead of "him" xD It also made it both first and third person xD And I love the "it's not half as dead yet" part xD

I love this thread so much, I'm dying of laughter. XD Ran mine through Irish, Spanish, and Japanese.

Original Summary:
Three dysfunctional adventurers - a shady psion, a rebellious pirate, and a distrustful con artist - are forced to work together when the new king tasks them to reclaim the castle town of Oganthir after a long and bloody civil war. Viewed as disposable by the powers that be, and each dealing with their own troubled history, cooperation is anything but easy. But with an entire city now counting on them for leadership, they'll have to figure out how to trust each other and face their demons if they want to survive.

Google Translate Summary:
After a long and bloody civil war, three dysfunctional adventurers (Shadow Scion, fraudulent pirate, and suspicious Greyhound artist) work together when the new king is tasked with regaining the castle city of Ogancer. I was forced to. Cooperation is by no means easy if it is abandoned by the forces that each faces its own turbulent history. But the whole city depends on them for leadership, so if they want to survive, they need to trust each other and learn to face the devil.

Ah yes, my three protagonists checks notes Shadow Scion, Fraudulent Pirate, and Suspicious Greyhound Artist.

[domisotto]

That’s a fun game.

Here is my awesome Japanese version:

夜の最も盲目の時間に、彼は黒さ自体よりも黒い影がアクラムのオオカミであると推測することしかできませんでした。

---

彼は人類に知られているすべての炭水化物にアレルギーがあるため、国営の孤児院で飢えています。孤独なティーンは、ポップスターとの豪華なインターンシップのために厳選されて月の上に密かにいます。しかし、彼のアイドルが呪いから罪のない人を救うために古代の借金（5、000年前の古代の借金）を呼び出すとき、彼は狼男の本能をSF技術と結び付けるか、グリッドから外れなければなりません。

そして、彼はそれをしなければなりませんが、彼の心は彼の最も古くて親友と謎めいた心の鼓動の間で跳ね返ります。

And back into English... puts some weight on my MC’s shoulders, that’s for sure, and strives for precision, lol:

At the most blind time of the night, he could only speculate that the black shadow was the Akram wolf rather than the blackness itself.

---

He is hungry in a state-owned orphanage because he is allergic to all the carbohydrates known to humanity. Lonely teens are secretly on the moon, carefully selected for a luxurious internship with a pop star. But when his idol summons ancient debt (ancient debt 5,000 years ago) to save an innocent from the curse, he combines the werewolf's instinct with science fiction technology or off the grid. Must be.

And he has to do that, but his heart bounces between his oldest and best friend and the mysterious heartbeat.

That English version went into Russian translation, then Russian translated it back into English. Peculiarly, I got some words back that way.

In the most blind time of the night, he could only assume that the black shadow was Akram's wolf, and not the blackness itself.

---

He is hungry in a state shelter because he is allergic to all the carbohydrates known to mankind. Single teenagers are secretly on the moon, carefully selected for a luxury pop star internship. But when his idol invokes an ancient debt (an ancient debt 5,000 years ago) to save an innocent from damnation, he combines werewolf instinct with sci-fi technology or offline. It should be.

And he has to do it, but his heart beats between his old and best friend and the mysterious heartbeat.

Undertaildoof34 has suffered Death by laughter

[Phantomlight]

It seems Google translate believes that the Black Death's severity was not as bad as we all know it was because it did not warrant capitalization.

Google translate: In the mid-14th century, the black death infected millions of persons, creatures, and souls across Europe.

Original:In the mid 14th Century, the Black Death infected millions of people, creatures and spirits across Europe.

Aside from a few minor alterations in the word choice and structure. That's the only thing that really stuck out at me xD

legit

Okay I wanna try this!

Original:
Seasoned pessimist Tonx McGruff doesn't ask for much in life. Having retired from boxing, all she wants now is to sleep until 3pm, eat like a truck-driver and be left to vegetate in peace.

But finds that easier said than done as she experiences every day misadventures with her best friend Fife, neighbour Cliff, his "frenemy" wife Cecilia and her down-to-earth therapist, Dr. Browner, who all begged a differ and want her to get back out into the world. But that's easier said than done on their end too.

Translated from Korean:
Seasoned pessimist Tonx McGruff doesn't ask for much in life. After retiring from boxing, what she wants is to sleep until 3pm, eat like a truck driver, and keep the plants peacefully.

However, she was able to combine her best friend Fife, neighbor Cliff, his "passionate" wife Cecilia and her realistic therapist Dr. I talked more easily than I said while experiencing different adventures every day with Browner. Come back to the world. But it's easier than I told them too.

(Ah yes, Dr.I the best doctor and I suppose I myself am somehow in the story too lol. And Tonx is now a plant enthusiast. Weirdly enough this was the only one that kept her gender consistant, all the other language either made her male or could not make up their mind XD)

This sounds really fun.
Here it is translated through Chinese and back to English:
Rip Vykirson gains the power of the dragon when he activates his skill "Dragon Spark". The young dinosaur is seeking to become a martial arts ranger. For this, he must become stronger and wiser in his fighting style.

And then I went from Chinese, to Yiddish, then to Croatian, and then back to English
Rhew Wojciech Schmidt, who was born in the United States of America. Three years ago, we went to the University of New York. Three, three years ago, and I was born in the United States of America

And here's the Original:
