I’ve left a few Google Voice messages for people recently, with varying levels of hilarity when it comes to the automated translation. According to Google, it’s “not perfect yet.”

Here’s my transcription of a voicemail I left for Evan this morning:

Evan, Chad. Bagel. Coupon. Ok, that was four slow words for the google voice translate thing. i imagine they probably even screwed that part of it up. But now I’m going to say some random words to confuse it. That, which, for, the, to, and why. Bye.

My humor might be mediocre, but the Google Voice transcription is fantastic:

Hey Matt, Chad bagel. How. What. Okay, that was porcelain works for the google voice translation thing, but I imagine it. Probably make sure that part of it up so I know I said kinda more secure that wish for that to him alright bye.
