Game I just come up with.

Write a sentence in a language that you think the next poster wouldn't know the translation for, that next person has to have a guess as what it says. First thing that comes to your head if you have no idea!

All I ask is you may use any free translation service to come up with a question but do not write what language it's from to save people from cheating easily. If they guess write you would have to believe they knew it!

Like this for example

Q: lojë e kam bërë vetëm deri
A: I came in like a wrecking ball!
Real Answer (after first guess): Game I just made up

The question becomes null and void upon first answer and hopefully the next person who posts will know what it is as their language and write something else, if after say 10 minutes no one knows or posts the answer then if you want to get the game rolling after a person gives their answer you may translate it either through knowledge or online translation and have a go

Your answer should be the first thing that comes to your head or a stab in the dark unless you genuinely know what it says!

The person who asked the question should only reveal the language after the answer is given and locked in as it is automatically.

Q: kap ditë
A: ?

Next person go!

Eh I gotta go to bed I'm so tired...Language of that sentence is Albanian (No cheating now, haha!) and someone look it up after the first answer has been given and post the answer then a question and so forth.

A) I am from Japan (I recognised the Kanji for Japan at least)
Q) Heute gehe ich in die Schule.

I used a translator for the Japan answer, should I just have guessed it again? Not too sure about that.

The correct translation for my phrase was "Today I'm going to school" and it was in German.

A) The cat eats an apple.
Q) Come ti chiami?
