Hehe!
Its very obvious that the translator just translates the words and doesn't put them in order(compile) that's why the translation is funny <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> !

This is due to the fact that some words are put in a different order than in english,or some greek words have more than one meaning depending on the phrase : Giving a simple example:

Greek Text:"&#927; char &#963;&#945;&#962; &#956;&#960;&#959;&#961;&#949;&#943; &#957;&#945; &#966;&#940;&#949;&#953; &#966;&#945;&#947;&#951;&#964;&#972;, &#957;&#945; &#954;&#959;&#965;&#957;&#942;&#963;&#949;&#953; &#941;&#960;&#953;&#960;&#955;&#945;, &#957;&#945; &#954;&#959;&#953;&#956;&#951;&#952;&#949;&#943; &#963;&#949; &#954;&#961;&#949;&#946;&#940;&#964;&#953;&#945;, &#945;&#954;&#972;&#956;&#951; &#954;&#945;&#953; &#957;&#945; &#963;&#946;&#942;&#963;&#949;&#953; &#954;&#949;&#961;&#953;&#940;"

Mslynx Linco Translation:"Char your it can eat food, shake furnitures, sleep in beds, even it extinguishes candles."

Real Translation/meaning:"Your Char can eat food,move furnitures,sleep in beds,even extinguish candles"

Also i noticed that you translated only the HALF part of the text!

I'm also Greek(Cypriot) as is my friend Metallica(DD fan also)!I'm from Cyprus(A Big greek-cypriot island under turkey,i suppose most of you have heard about it since we are getting into EUROPE in May 2004 and about the well known "Cypriot Problem" with the idiot turks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" />!)

I'm ALSO WONDERING ARE THERE ANY OTHER GREEK DD PLAYERS AROUND?
Would love to chat with them in msn!
My msn is afterstarx@hotmail.com !

Nope, not greek or anything (although my name is Dimitri and many many...many people keep asking me if I have greek blood or something, which I don't) but I did do a study on the whole "cypriot-problem" last year <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

goodie, my first post and immediatly sort of off-topic <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I'll be posting abit now, instead of lurking around like I used to

Hey AfterstarX, sorry about putting up only half the text! Oh my... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />
As you can tell I am not Greek. I was absolutely clueless till now that I only had half...How about helping us out here? After translating in the generator, I pasted and copied to word. Then I pasted and copied to here. Sheesh! Unfortunately, Our Larians forum doesn't read Greek either. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> I prefer Light Beer...Thank You! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" />

Well, I'm in and Kejero, too. That's for sure.

There was a third one on the Old Forum, but I fear he's lost. I don't remember the name anymore.

So the actual number is quite uncertain.

You can apply, if you want ... ,)
