I used a web translator to translate a German website into English.

Then I marvelled at results such as:

_“No drinking or performance sportsmen requesting for drinking can be explained”_

_“…to be promised those with rains, **nebulas** , snow, or ice alone security”_

\*“Short ringing run gene to the behavior rules of the German advertising advice”  
Anyone else got any of these to share?
