      From: robgood@bestweb.net              Why didn't I think of this before? Remember how around the turn of the       century I started grunting when I was too excited to form words? I just put       some of them into Google Translate. It detected a few languages.              Footsiga came out as Uzbek for "to the footy".       Yavootz it couldn't translate.       Radabadoomha is Somali for "radar".       Doofiq was Bulgarian for "Doofia" -- whatever that is.       Chinga was Romanian for "strap".       Grink it couldn't translate.       Geen is Dutch for "no".              However, when I put a few of them together it detected other languages and       other translations.              Bob in Andover              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
