Here are the top ten funniest lines from Internet Geek Week.
1. From Chocolate Rain:
Original: The school books say it can't be here again
Mistranslation: As for the textbook it means that for the second time it cannot turn to be here
2. From Candy Mountain:
Original: They've got lolly pops and gummy drops and candy things
Mistranslation: Those have the thing of the explosion sound of lolly and decrease and the candy of stickiness
3. From Candy Mountain:
Original: It's impossible to wear a frown in Candy Town
Mistranslation: It is impossible to learn the grimacing aspect of town of the candy
4. From Trogdor:
Original: Whoa, this has wicked dueling guitar solos!
Mistranslation: Remain there is a solo of the guitar of cunning duel, Whoa!
5. From Candy Mountain:
Original: So now Charlie please will you go into the cave
Mistranslation: So now it enters into the Chiyari cave
6. From Peanut Butter Jelly Time:
Original: Now tick-tack-toe (uh huh)
Mistranslation: This time through kachikachi sound the rivet toe (uh haatsu)
7. From Candy Mountain:

8. From Trogdor:

Original: Flippin' cars in France the other night
Mistranslation: The French car is repelled the other night
10. From Trogdor:
Original: SQUIGGLY WINS!
Mistranslation: SQUIGGLY VICTORY!
From now on, I think I will take just a little more creative license and drop or rearrange some words in the mistranslations. Even though it won't be an accurate mistranslation (oxymoron?) it will still have the essence of the mistranslation. I think it will be necessary for comedic effect to do this because some of the lines just become a mouthful or are worded weirdly to the point that the words are in a strange order and just aren't funny. Come back next week for hopefully a more improved Universal Language of Mankind.
