Not a story but Ive used the Google translate to do work for me in Eve. Many different languages so far; Russian and Romanian being the most popular then Spanish and other languages. The trick is you have to use traditional languages never slang to get a point across or get it to translate correctly. They seem to be literal translations. ---

Not Eve, but I used Google Translate a lot when I was active in Virtual Worlds - extremely useful tool, especially when greeting brand-new arrivals. ---

Sometimes in NPC Corp chat I’ll use it when I see someone post in a language other than English, and then I usually direct them to the appropriate language channel. ---

Google translate and Russian is always amusing, more so if you run your reply through several languages before posting it in local. ---

There’s some amusing easter eggs in google translate. Translating the “joke” below from German to English gives a fatal error in a nod to a Monty Python [sketch](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9FzUI8998U). > Wenn ist das Nunstück git und Slotermeyer? Ja! Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput! ---
