Just found the german (my first language) translation of Hamilton on Spotify. My first impression was that it's well translated but the choice of words are odd.
Then I got to "Die Schuyler Schwestern" (Schuyler Sisters) and ran into this line:

Literal translation: "You're a babe, I would drink your bathwater."
This line is a replacement for the line "I'm a trust fund, Baby, you can trust me"
Now I can see why it was so unsuccessful.

I translated Dream Sweet in Sea Major lyrics 20x through google translate, and this is what happened 😭
Run to the end of the world.
We dominate under the snow.
Don't worry
He promised eternal paradise.
Tina Gests.
But this is different.
cancer
oh
in my heart
Stay with us
I stand.
and everything
Freedom
Equipment etc
It's true
There are many children there.
Like Lama Quartz.
Hotels and Resorts
Notebook
fly to the moon
Find out more about our success stories.
Kambula
Then a moron took pity.
Site Location:
There are three colors in the pyramid.
It is good for adults.
Catch the musician killer
They stand in line before the performance begins.
Not where I live
Children born with emotions
The deep sea is our worship
There will be no division because we will be independent.
For more information
We crossed the line
Change color to show Oh.
This is very clear
You will look divine tonight
This is the light of life.
Pure joy surrounds us as we walk
Signed, Sincerely, Keith
Come to the kingdom of joy
Nobody moved
That's a warning
Let's see what we can do.
This section has been completed
A line for the last song
But for a long time
We will pay
Finally, forever in the past.
The big star is blind.
love love
Look, Hawaii
We didn't want to be separated.
Good job
light
1 day or more
Something is hidden
yet

Who was gonna tell me that the Finnish word "yläkoulu" is infact NOT the same as the English "high school" even tho they have the exact same two words but instead is a word for the last 3 years of middle school so instead of me being in high school as I thought I was i was infact still IN MIDDLE SCHOOL
Oh yeah and the word for high school is "yliopisto" or "over education"

I started an episode of DS9 and had the German audio turned on accidentally so I decided to listen for a bit and whoever translated this show put NO effort into determining the correct duzen/siezen distribution
IT’S SEASON 5 NONE OF THESE PEOPLE ARE FUCKING CALLING EACH OTHER SIE ANYMORE THEY’VE ALMOST DIED TOGETHER LIKE 500 TIMES
I had to check in another episode for this but Sisko and Jadzia siezen each other and I swear to god I’m just going to *LOUDEST INCORRECT BUZZER NOISE OF ALL TIME* WRONG WRONG WRONG she is LITERALLY like a father to him do you think he was calling her ass Sie when she was Curzon and they were out drinking together? NO and he’s not going to start now!!!
Odo and Quark do NOT call each other Sie they have NEVER called each other Sie and you WILL not convince me otherwise (however I would believe the Ferengi language has a complicated system of formality levels based on the relative wealth of each party and whether they’re actively negotiating a business deal at that moment. But Quark would not use the formal pronouns with Odo because their relationship evolves from open mutual contempt to grudging friendship and that’s the point)
#it’s not fun or interesting if you just default to sie for every character!!!!!!!#it’s so lazy!!!!!!#where’s the PRIDE in your CRAFT do you not want your work to make goddamn sense?#this DID happen to be the episode where jadzia and worf get together (and thus switched from sie to du) so at least that’s something#//#ds9#translation#bad translation#no

Translated some life series quotes with a bad translator (hypertranslate)
Do me a favour, die for me. - Do me a favor and let me die.
Tilly death do us part - until death do us part
That hole changed you! - This hole will change you!
If you're gonna be an absent father, could you be at least absent? - If you're an absent father, isn't he gone at least?
This is why I'm gay. - That's why I'm gay.
What's three minus ten? ... Seventeen! - 3 minus 10 is... 17!
I'm confessing my love! We're married now. No, for poppies, I mean. No, for me. - I admit my love! We are married now. No, I mean there are poppies. No, for me.

Last DR Post cont'd: JP EDITION
A little more to talk about, as well, that is seperate. BARE IN MIND that the translations aren't done by Toby themselves, HOWEVER Fangamer have direct input on the game. ALSO, I don't speak fluent Japanese at all. So I'm using DeepL in order to translate the pages and content.
For anybody in denial about Chapter 3's locale...
And Mike's role as "not the TV..."
So, that's my closing bracket. Not much else to bring up, but there's a lot of small things.

Black glyphs on a white background. On the left, arrows point up and down above a rectangle containing three stick-mans. On the right, a tapered "u" shape contains four squares.
Meaning: "Add three mans and shake vigorously. Pour the result over ice to serve."

Huge thanks to @kaypendragon for this submission!

last thing before i go to bed, i feel like i should mention it as well, they still don't know how to count in french either:




#Is there a meme about gays who can't do maths?#Honestly their stupidity made me question if i could actually count or not#Lookism#Bad translation#Look it's bad because if both have the same dumb mistake it means that it comes from the original and neither fixed it like bruh. C'mon.#You had one job sir#This mistake still baffles me. Like. Who's the fourth dude? Are you counting yourself in?#this is just me nitpicking again but thise time i find the mistake to be genuinely funny#Mika's trad log
