A reading of Canto I of Dante’s Inferno after several translatory metamorphoses via Google Translate: from Italian to Albanian, to Bengali, to Filipino, to Urdu, to Arabic, to Romanian, to Swahili – and the whole way back.

 

Beginning of transcript:

La nascita del nostro viaggio vita
Ho nero
Vi è una perdita diretta.
Ah, come va intesa
Foreste, terra prima, è difficile
Ho paura che qualcuno potrebbe pensare che!
Questo è un po ‘più dolorosa a causa della morte;
Ma meglio di “Ho visto
Tra le altre cose, ho visto.
“Com’i reddito che non si può ri-
Non mi
Modo corretto.
Ma mentre camminavo la montagna,
Valle Annulla
Ho rotto il mio cuore a temere,
No spalla
“National Self-raggi
Tutto il percorso.
Paura Alituliza
Lake City Center
