Translate Google Docs .. English to Hindi is bad :(

Bingo !! I loved it .. This is the way I jumped on the floor when I translated a document. It was a ‘English’ to ‘Hindi’ translation.

But, when I started reading the translated document, I was really disappointed.

Here is a translated para from ‘English’ to ‘hindi’ that doesn’t make any sense:

Original Paragraph
““Social networking continued to grow strongly in India this past year, with several of the top global brands carving out a more prominent position,” said Will Hodgman, comScore executive vice president. “While there is certainly room for several players in the social networking space in India, the sites that have the right blend of having both a strong brand and cultural relevance will be best positioned for future growth.””

Translated one
“,, ComScore के कार्यकारी उपाध्यक्ष करेंगे Hodgman “सामाजिक नेटवर्किंग के लिए भारत में यह पिछले साल जोरदार निरंतर बढ़ती रही, ऊपर वैश्विक बाहर एक और प्रमुख स्थान नक्काशी के कई ब्रांडों के साथ” कहा था. “हालांकि निश्चित रूप से भारत में सामाजिक नेटवर्किंग अंतरिक्ष में कई खिलाड़ी, साइटों है कि दोनों एक मजबूत ब्रांड और सांस्कृतिक प्रासंगिकता होने का सही मिश्रण है के लिए कमरा है सबसे अच्छा भविष्य के विकास के लिए तैनात हो जाएगी.” ”

Ohh.. am scratching my head.

Nano - an over hype !

# Nano is a global brand now !!
# Nano is into gossips !!
# Nano is in news/blogs/forums !!

But,

# When Nano will come on road? It is launched, never saw that till now. I see Merc, BMW, R Royce, Volks, and other cars on Western Exp Hwy in Mumbai.

# Even if it is a dream to get a car in reality, people will have to wait for months and years to drive it.

# Heard that now Renovo is going to launch a car worth 1.3 L

# There will be more n more Nano kind of cars in market. And, god knows when Nano will be produced in huge numbers all around India. There are many Mamta Aunti sitting all over.

I don't see its success. Lets talk and speak after looking at the real success.

So, wait n watch before over-hyping it !!

A HINDI Poem


आरंभ है प्रचंड
बोलें मस्ताकों के झुंड
आज जंग की घड़ी की तुम गुहार दो

आन बान शान
या की जान का हो दान
आज एक धनुष के बान पे उतार दो

मन करे सो प्राण दे
जो मन करे सो प्राण ले
वो वही तो एक सर्व शक्तिमान है

कृष्ण की पुकार है ये
भागवत का सार है
की युद्ध ही तो वीर का प्रमाण है

कौरवों की भीड़ हो
या पांडवों का नीर हो
जो लड़ सका है वोही तो महान है

जीत की हवस नही
किसी पे कोई वश नही
क्या ज़िंदगी है ठोकरों पे मार दो

मौत अंत है नही
तो मौत से भी क्यूँ डरें
ये जाके आसमानो में दहाड़ दो !

वो दया का भाव या की
शौर्या का चुनाव या की
हार का वो घाव तुम ये सोच लो

या की भूरे भाल पर
जला रहे विजय का लाल
लाल ये गुलाल तुम ये सोच लो
रंग केसरी हो या मृदंग केसरी हो
या की केसरी हो ताल तुम ये सोच लो

जिस कवि की कल्पना में
ज़िंदगी हो प्रेम गीत
उस कवि को आज तुम नकार दो

भीगति मसो में आज
फूलती रागों में आज
आग की लपट का तुम भगार दो

आरंभ है प्रचंड

बोलें मस्ताकों के झुंड

आज जंग की घड़ी की तुम गुहार दो


आन बान शान

या की जान का हो दान

आज एक धनुष के बान पे उतार दो

Ek Geet Hijar Da


Ek Geet Hijar Da
Ajj asaan ve bolna / Today I shall speak
Ajj kise na tokna / Today I shan't be stopped
Lekh ve jindrhi da / The script of destiny
Ajj asaan ve bhogna / Today I shall live it

Na roveen meet moiyan te mere / Don't cry at my death my Friend
Na paavin vainh moiyan te / Don't sing mournful tunes
Tu gaaveen geet / Sing instead this song
Ek geet / This Song

Kal jo beet gaya / Yesterday, all that passed
Na beeteya O jo beet gaya / Hasn't passed but remains with me
Sool mere seene / A thorn in my heart
Vairi khob gaya / Driven by Foe

Keetey main sab chaare / I've used all options
Saarey upaa haare / All cures have failed
Ehda 'laaj bas ek geet / The only cure is this song
Ek geet hijar da / A song of longing

Ek geet hijar da / A song of longing
Ek geet sabar da / A song of restraint
Ek geet karam da / A song of kindness
Ek geet reham da / A song of mercy

Ek geet milan da / A song of union
Ek geet balan da / A song of burning
Ek geet gunaah da / A song of Sin
Ek geet panaah da / A song of pardon

Ek geet, Ek geet, Ek geet / A song, A song, A song

Hunh na kujh disda / Now I see nothing
Hunh na kujh sujhda / Now I can't grasp anything
Zehar naseebaan da / Since the poison of the fate
Ajj asaan jo peeta / Has been mine to drink

Sa'te taras kareen / Have mercy on me
Na lekha mera mangii / Don't ask for my liabilities
Ve tu sunii eh mera geet / Just listen this song of mine

Vekheen zara / Look here
Na hove kharaab / Don't let it go waste
Boohey tere, hanju mera / This teardrop of mine
Ho jaave tere dar te manzoor / Let it be accepted at your gate
Mere Huzoor / My Master

Eh geet hijar da / This song of longing
Eh geet sabar da / This song of restraint
Eh geet karam da / This song of kindness
Eh geet reham da / This song of mercy

Eh geet milan da / This song of union
Eh geet balan da / This song of burning
Eh geet gunaah da / This song of Sin
Eh geet panaah da / This song of pardon

Eh geet, Eh geet, Eh geet / This song, This song, This song


~Rabbi Shergill

Kedar Ki Lo - II

This conversation comes from orkut scraps which I had exchanged with 'Kedar - the reloaded' few months back. I saw his comments on Jinal's pic which were rarely unique and his status msg regarding some 'point' .. and here I went through a mental trauma and disastrous assault :(


Ritesh:

When I erase a word with a pencil.... where does it go? !!
....hmmmm..

But I think u always write with a pointless pencil :P .. a pencil without point is pointless

Kedar:

nahi re ... my points always require a bit of imagination..
waise bhi hum "point blank" use karte hai.. which shoots on a point - without point ! using bullets !!

:))

Ritesh:

m drown into imagination ..

Kedar

kar le kaar lee...

tu abhi tere kaam se pareshan ...me recession se pareshan .. khinch le ....

Ritesh:

weirdo .. who told u m 'pareshan' with my work ??? i never felt so in last so many years.... i think u r more into over-imagination now

Kedar

oopss... galat button press ho gaya ...

I though last weekend u were working in office at this time.. u even this time .. ma' mistake !! u have always enjoyed ur work buddy !!!

Kedar

Tumhare sare scraps ko agar me collect kar pata na .. then it would have been the best "Testi" for me ... Is baat ki to mujhe hammesha shikaya rahegi ... tu itnna time nahi nikal paya .. !!

Ritesh:

ohhh.. so u took it negatively again .. ohh.. i remember .. its congenital :P

luk @ the +ve side.. i always work on weekends.. and i do skip weekdays n enjoy .. like no one else :D

Ritesh:

start collecting .. i m damn sure u still remember Ctrl-C + Ctrl-V

Kedar:

It's Ctrl-C + "add your imagination & intelligence" + Ctrl - V dost ...

Ritesh:

faak!! m bak into imagination ... y do i make mistakes

Kedar

That's not congenital .. not habitual.. It's reality ...
It always happens, when u r not doing your choice of job.. its kind of management person doing stupid coding stuff ... !!!

Kedar:

I cant compare ur work, your text, your testi. with Ctrl - C + Ctrl - V dude... it's some thing differnet ...!!
;)

Ritesh:

huhahahaha .. huhahahaha

no words..

a person with a BTech degree is a management person first .. and secondly... if he can't code.. he calls it stupid ..

waah mere dost .. waah .. naaz hai .. fakrr hai mujhe aaj tujhpe

Kedar:

are bhaiya.... its a language barrier in bet'n ... I said I dont "like" coding stuff... never said i cant ... !!

Thats what my degree says, BTech ..that's our primary skill.....

aur commerce degree wale hi management kar sakte hai aisa to nahi... BTech wale bhi mgmt expert ho sakte hai... tu bhi to exper tha (i mean u stil are) ... pura innovation akele karvata tha.. ignite aur na jane kya kya ...

Fakraa to muje tuj par hai !!

Ritesh:

Galti ho gayi yar.. tu jaaa.. logo ke photos per he butter laga .. wahi sahi tha .. am avoiding butter/cheese nowdays ;-)

Kedar Ki Lo !!!!

Ritesh Ambastha at 01:16 on 18 March
Nah .. dnt wanna fill up this space with craps :) Rather, I am doubting on another aspect -multi-tasking .. and yeah, in India we r used to do it always !!

Asmi Shah at 03:02 on 18 March

Kedar Mehta at 03:08 on 18 March
@ Asmi - it's not like when you socialise, you can't work... It's just that, "I" can't concentrate on my stupid work, if facebook window is open.. n I should never go for such parallel processing ..
If it's about frnds, I give them full dedication .. no time sharing...
same for the work....
:))
Asmi Shah at 03:10 on 18 March
so kedar's theory proves here that work is one of his frnz..! hence proved with fullstop! wat say?
Kedar Mehta at 03:15 on 18 March
He Bhagwaan... Uthaa le !!
Kedar Mehta at 03:15 on 18 March
mere ko nahi....in dono ko re baba !! ;)
Ritesh Ambastha at 03:16 on 18 March

Wasn't targettiing any one!
What you call it .. Freedom of speech (we have that @ both places... india/ US..)
Kedar Mehta at 03:22 on 18 March
Btway, this (socializing) is quite a fun. Since last 30 minutes, i am doing no work... Just n'joying here !!
;)
Asmi Shah at 03:24 on 18 March

Ritesh Ambastha at 03:27 on 18 March

:))
Asmi Shah at 03:29 on 18 March

Kedar Mehta at 03:36 on 18 March
@ Ritz:
That's the real thing with India!!
India can have USA in (subset), but US can't have India in...
Mera jahan....
Kedar Mehta at 03:36 on 18 March
@ Asmi:
n'joyment has a reason.. Would it be some one else - it won't be such fun..
It's b'caz we have presence of three experts here !
Asmi Shah at 03:37 on 18 March

Ritesh Ambastha at 03:40 on 18 March

Asmi Shah at 03:42 on 18 March

Kedar Mehta at 03:44 on 18 March
No comments for Asmi...

@Ritz:
Ofcourse, that's my (& yours,too) mother-land..
Ritesh Ambastha at 03:48 on 18 March
@asmi .. someone is getting serious here !! BTW, do lemme know once u crack the hidden meaning of - 'US cant have India in Mera Jahan'

@Mr.Reloaded : I doubt when u use that word - 'Ofcourse' :P
Kedar Mehta at 03:52 on 18 March
Wrong sentance, but hope u understood that.. it should be
'US cant have India inside of it, where as India can have USA,UK,UAE any thing inside of it.
It's India - mera jahaan....'
Ofcourse is ofcourse dude .. but natural!!
;)
Kedar Mehta at 03:54 on 18 March
m not gettting serious...
The great joker of The Dark knight - Batman - used to say-
"Why so serious...?!! "

It was just for a moment, that I didn't have comment for Asmi..

So @ Asmi..
Everything here is, absltly Koool !!! :))
Asmi Shah at 03:56 on 18 March

Asmi Shah at 03:57 on 18 March

Ritesh Ambastha at 04:00 on 18 March
Thnx Thnx Thnx for Reloading the meaning of the gr8 mysterious sentence !! Mr. Joker .. keep smiling and don't get serious .. we r here to laugh at Joker :)
Kedar Mehta at 04:02 on 18 March
Well it's simple... Ritz already explained abt USA in India (Ullasnagar some thing some thing.)
The similar way Gujarat (officially) used to have United States of Kathiawad ( ruled by Kings of Rajkot).

Similar way, I can find you out UAE inside India...
Ritesh Ambastha at 04:04 on 18 March
Kedar@US rocks :)

Asmi Shah at 04:12 on 18 March

Kedar Mehta at 05:57 on 18 March
@ Asmi... It's not necessary that 1 needs to sit in office - if 1 wants to work.. We - here in US - take maximum use of technologies...I am once again starting my work, from home.. Thanks to Cisco Networks!

Btway, u got good memory... u still remember old comments !! :))
Kedar Mehta at 05:58 on 18 March
Asmi, Tom Hanks cant open the suspense so easily & that even in free !!
You need to convince him for revealing such a big suspense!
Kedar Mehta at 06:00 on 18 March
Ritesh,
I am serious this time... Human being must take enough sleep... You are stretching beyond limits !!
Keep having mast taka tak cutting chaay (which is rare,in US!)!!
Which will keep the moments light !!
:))
Ritesh Ambastha at 10:58 on 18 March
@max use of technology - fak with it dude !! I do my script work at my home, and run them on 23 servers which r geographically far from my place (but in India). Yeah, and those r based on Cisco n/w and IBM servers...

TCS must had given u worst experiences in India.. Join a gud firm at India ... and open your eyes !!

A man should have any number of little aims about which he should be conscious and for which he should have names, but he should have neither name for, nor consciousness concerning, the main aim of his life.
The question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had means, time, influence and educational advantages; the question is what he will do with the things he has. The moment a young man ceases to dream or to bemoan his lack of opportunities and resolutely looks his conditions in the face, and resolves to change them, he lays the corner-stone of a solid and honorable success.
All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.
Imagine every day to be the last of a life surrounded with hopes, cares, anger, and fear. The hours that come unexpectedly will be so much more the grateful.

My trip to Andaman & Nicobar .. an unforgettable journey.

Some info about Andaman !

Heaven. The clean environment, roads, greenery as well as unpolluted fresh air attract all nature lovers. The tropical rain forests and waters of Bay of Bengal are the home of a vast collection of plant, animal and marine life. Topographically the islands are hilly in places fringed with coconut palm, covered with tropical jungle and interspersed with flat stretches of crescent shaped beaches. Adventure tourism like trekking, Island camping, snorkeling, SCUBA diving etc. and other water sports are the real attractions. A marvelous mix of nature's most precious delights, the Andaman & Nicobar Islands are a once in a lifetime holiday experience.
