I was hoping the babelfish would do something with "Badger", but the second part was funny, so I put it up.


"She's torn up plenty but she'll fly true."

Here's another easy one:

"I don't give half a hump if you're innocent or not. So where does that leave you?"

I've found that it works best if you pick quotes that don't include any distinctive words like "badger" because they tend to survive the translation pretty well. I also seem to get better results if I leave out punctuation - if nothing else, sometimes the punctuation is a dead giveaway even when the rest of it makes no sense. I figured out the "floating chandelier" one above almost entirely based on the punctuation...

If you'd just done the second sentence I'm not sure if I'd have got it :)

I don't get it. How's a guy get so wrong? Cuttin' on his own face, rapin' and murdering - I mean, I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight. Or if he bothers me, or if there's a woman, or I'm gettin' paid -- mostly only when I'm gettin' paid. But these Reavers-- last ten years they just show up like the bogeymen from stories. Eating people alive? Where does that get fun?
