This was fun, Mlle. Odat

Odat suggested to her blogging friends today that they (we) write a few paragraphs in English, have them translated using Babelfish into the language of our choice, (j'ai choisi Francais) and then have that translated back into English. Zut! What a hoot!

Here's what I wrote:

The two cats that we have adopted have taken over our humble abode. We are now scared to go asleep, fearing they may get hungry during the night and nibble on our noses, or worse!

We are broke and cannot afford to feed them much longer. They are getting fat. We may have to give them away. Boo hoo!

In French:

Les deux chats que nous avons adoptés ont assuré notre demeure humble. Nous sommes maintenant effrayés pour aller endormis, craignant ils pouvons devenir affamés pendant la nuit et grignoter sur nos nez, ou plus mauvais ! Nous sommes les avons cassés et ne pouvons pas se permettre d'alimenter beaucoup plus longtemps. Ils deviennent gros. Nous pouvons devoir les donner loin. À bas hoo !

And back into English:

The two cats that we cuts adopted cuts taken over our humble abode. We are now scared to go asleep, fearing they may get hungry during the night and nibble one our noses, but worse! We are broke and cannot afford to feed them much to skirt. Conceited They are getting. We may cuts to give them away. Boo hoo!

Do they look like they are planning a coup? Help!
