Hi

If you have a spare minute please check out this blog:
http://americaninlebanon.blogspot.com/2 ... -west.html

The funniest mistranslations I have seen of a pirate copy of Revenge of the Sith translated into chinese & then back into English.

"Backstroke of the West" was one favourite.
And Obi-wan being a member of the "presbyterian church" also.

"the wish power are together with you"!!

:D

Hi!

I used to do translation work in college and I know firsthand how funny it can be.
