What a great opportunity! I have decided to ditch this Danish stuff, as there is a lot of work translating Chinese to Urdu, and when you don't even have to bother learning the language, what a relief.

I especially like the names of the "graduates" who comment:
O. Boi
R. Ashamed
B. Gonn
I.M. Foolin

Right after I got stranded on this planet because of my flying saucer's plasma engine trouble, I enrolled in this wonderful school. Not only am I capable of communicating with the Earthlings, I am a translator, too!

Unlike Nicole, I am originally of this planet.
However, some years ago I was assimilated into what some may know as a Borg collective, stripped of my free will and previous skills and left with no context in life.
Following a miraculous rescue and recovery operation, I went through a long process of restoration.
These are the fine folks who made me what I am today and I have no hesitation in reccommending them. Their Klingon courses have been over-subscribed for some time but thanks to this fine institution, I will soon be proudly adding English>Vulcan to my language portfolio (which is logically no walk in the park for a non-native speaker).
Live long and prosper.

...what a funny joke. At least I hope that's what it is.
I'm pretty sure the names are a clue though!

I love it!
Thousands of translators are using our techniques to produce millions of words a day in a variety of languages they do not know.
Does anyone else understand them?? 
Think of all the proofreading there will be for those of us with degrees, diplomas and experience!

| Only millions of words per day??? | Apr 1, 2010 |
I think they are selling themselves short here - why stop at millions of words per day, when all you seem to need is an internet connection and the ability to copy/paste?
I am sure they could throw in a macro to do that for you, and we could be talking billions of words per day.
A very good thing about this is, that after taking their classes I can now take on jobs at USD 0.001 and still maintain my condoe and my summer cottage with swimming pool!

What a great opportunity! I can feel that 2010 will be e very successful and productive year for all of us. All my children's college loans will be paid off in one week. What a relief just to think about it! Any new language we can come up with this programm?
Cheers!

I like the small script at the bottom:
"Based upon a rate of 2 cents per word. Income dependent on a variety of factors, including Internet connection, ability to cut and paste"

This school is so good and efficient, you only have to look at their website for a few seconds, and you will be able to translate from Wangkajunga into the Candoshi-Shapra language with no problem!
