Language experiments part 1

Concept

Misinterpreting the news is easy.

Description

This experiment is using the yahoo's fantastic translating engine to translate the text from English through several languages into English again.
The flow I used is that

  1. English to German
  2. German to French
  3. French to Greek
  4. Greek to English
  5. English to Chinese (Traditional)
  6. Chinese to English

I got the news sent it through this flow and you can see the result below.
