Funny Babelfish Translation: Hello! I am pink one
Looking up information on our vacation stop in Germany, I ran across this site and used Babelfish to translate... :rofl:

Hello! I am pink one

...

Some people state, I would be one of the most famous goats of Germany. If there are at all famous goats. ; -)
Which so particularly makes me? Now, as I am to say, I am even I. In the year 1997 has I mean herd left and in be-compelling into the house No. 12 drew in. Well, actually not in the house, although I there already in it was. Has I mean own lodger flat natural, although some ignorant ones call mine at home falsely “stable”. Everyone, which already visited me, knows that this designation is completely absurd. But I deviate...

“Recognize why?” you ask. Obviously, if you come to be-compelling. Because I am nearly each day in the village on the way and make my round (most of all with my Frauchen Friederike and our “guidance animal” Gerd). Times I am to the Altmühl on my meadow, where also art stands, times visit I the other goats in the village...

And if the weather is beautiful and I do not go walking, I lie usually on my skin bed in our yard, where mostly some cats accompany me.

But I deviate already again. I wanted to talk nevertheless about my prominent figures. Now, to me many people to visit and some come of it are correctly well-known. As my artist friend Otmar alto. That has to pull to me even already offered into its private zoo after Hamm Norddinker, where I would have an enclosure as well as its Lamas and Nandus. But I am own there! So much I the Otmar like, I remain here. In addition I am the undisputed number 1 here! And who knows already whether the Lamas are really so nice, as Otmar says.

There see ihr's: the Otmar wants to becircen me!)

But I must here not away, in order to make career. The past high point: I am now a star model! The well-known photographer Süssner selected me for its “franc calendar 2002” as motive for the month May (calculated the Wonnemonat May)!!!
Strongly, gell?
There are bad tongues, which state, our house would be the actual motive and I only addition, but those are nevertheless only envious. Everyone me knows, white that I am always located in the center. At least at my herd, äh, mean people.
So, and Tschüß, me made happy now, with you too plaudern. And good-bye in be-compelling!



...
Unfortunately our dear pink ones on 20 January 2005 into those eternally green pasture reasons was received. This side is to remain to their memory.
Friederike & Gerd

1. I wonder what a second-level Babelfish translation would be like.
I've translated stuff from one language to another to English, or from English to something else and then back to English. Generally nothing even resembling sentence structure is left.

3. I can figure out where a few of those come from
The goat is probably named Rosa, which also means "pink" in German.

"Gel" is south German for "nich wahr," or "isn't that right?"
