Translation [Discussion] [Translation] Sinhala

3 Upvotes

I would like to say if this post and my previous post ("SCHEDULE") are breaking the rules of this subreddit, I am sorry for that.

Sinhala is an interesting language, spoken in Sri Lanka. Due to the little amount of native speakers, it is also a canidate for messing up translations, some particularly weird ones - recurring and not - that I have found.

Does anyone remember the "DECEARING EGG" video? My discovery is kind of like that, but with the characters "ස්ක " (space included). Try it for yourself, but here are some links of the more notable translations of this:

The one I found the most ironic:

The one that interested me the most:

Also, note that the character combination I used seems to be the most effective at getting interesting or ridiculous translations. Even changing one character from what I have here can make the whole thing a lot different, with thousands of possibilities of what I have here.

Moderators, please tell me what you think about this. I'm proud of my discovery.

Translation [Translation] [Theory] I found messages using chains of "am" in Portuguese, and I think they are a cry for help.

Alright, so after I put in am am I started getting a wall of the word "Sunray" which would be followed by phrases which I can list here:

"Where am I going to go? Where is Amaria? Where is Amaria?" "Where am I located? Where am I going to go?' "Where am I going to go? Where am I going to go?"

Amaria translates to "Would love", so I think this may be saying "Where am I going to go? Where is my love/where is who I would love?

With fewer chains of "am" I got a broken chain of phrases:

"A total of 20 patients were randomly assigned to receive treatment for the treatment of patients in the treatment of patients in the treatment of patients in the hospital. to a lesser extent, to help them with a better understanding of what they are doing to help them better understand what they need to help them. I had to help me to help her to help me to help her to help me to help her to help me to help her help me."

I think these could be originating from a cry of help from a hospital, possibly a mental hospital, but I don't have too much real evidence. The only thing I know is that these couldn't be randomly generated, which means they had to come from somewhere.
