i suspect the ones where "He" appears is probably translation to english from japanese as it is very common for japanese to leave out personal subjects in sentences. the context prior to the line translated more than likely indicated what it was supposed to mean but often the auto translate looses it's mind with japanese because of this.

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

To be fair, that can also be done in english. It can work well enough with context, as I just demonstrated. Another fun thing are gendered nouns and the fact that english has only "the"

[@himejoon8005]

I think it could also be because in Vietnamese, the UK is called "Anh Quốc", which is usually shortened to just "Anh". And "anh" is also a word used to refer to other man, so something like "Anh tấn công Đức" could be translated as either "Britain attacks Germany" or "He attacks Germany"

[@katiekawaii]

Yeah, it's called a "pro-drop" language-a language where you can leave out the pronoun in some (or, in a few languages, most) cases. There are quite a few "pro-drop" languages, like a lot of Asian and Slavic languages, and when they get machine translated into English, which grammatically requires pronouns in most cases, it usually inserts a masculine pronoun. So you're totally right, that's absolutely what's going on; they either used Japanese or they used another of the pro-drop languages (or both!).

One reason these are so messed up is not just because of normal translation errors but the fact he probably translated it twice -- first from English to a language known to have poor translation quality as he stated in the intro and then back to English. This creates two opportunities for mistranslation to occur. It's sort of like the "telephone game" only much, much worse! Since he mentioned he used the Google timeline, I checked that and it helped clarify what some of these were supposed to mean which helps when trying to figure out some of the more garbled responses.

21:48 Fun fact: the Mongols did fight in WW2 as allies of the Soviets (Mongolian Republic) or as part of the Chinese United Front (Mongolian soldiers in the Chinese armies), though their participation was overshadowed by the larger countries back then. Mongolian cavalry and armoured car units took part at the battle of Khalkhin Gol against the Japanese. Some Soviet units were of Mongolian origins, such as the 112th "Revolutionary Mongolia" Tank Brigade, which fought against Guderian's attack near Tula during the battle of Moscow, or the Mongolian Arat squadron. In 1945 a big chunk of the Mongolian army fought in the Soviet Invasion of Manchuria as part of the "Soviet-Mongolian Cavalry-Mechanised Group".

The “battle” started when Australian soldiers attempted to defend an American sailor from US MPs. Eventually it escalated into a two day riot. The Australian soldier was killed when a MP fired a shotgun into a crowd of Australian rioters. Other MPs proceeded to follow suit, injuring many others.

[@n-boom]

Maybe someone already said it but 'He' is probably just a passive or a impersonal tense that got screwed up in translation and became an active tense (not a native english speaker, don't know the technical names in english) but things like 'He founded london' were probably like 'London was founded' or 'He summoned the Estonian army' maybe was something like 'The Estonian army was summoned' I know that one of the most varied thing in languages is if certain expressions need an explicit subject or if it can go implicit, especially for concordance and stuff.

Other translation traps are homonyms and false friends. False friends are words from different languages that look close enough that you believe they mean the same thing. Like how the Swedish word "svimma"(= faint, swoon) is similar to the English word "swimming", which makes one of my favorite Swenglish jokes possible. (Yes, there are enough false friends between Swedish and English to create an entire genre of jokes that require a degree of bilingualism.)

I’m sure the robot army thing is from translating it into Czech. The Czech word for peasant worker is robot. The word was introduced to English by a Czech SciFi novel, so in English it replaced the word automata. However, the word kept the same meaning in Czech.

Most of those weird lines are probably transliteration of place names. Cher is sick is probably Cherbourg. Bourg in whatever language they used as intermediary means sickness or similar. An example of bad translation IRL: A K-pop band [Boyfriend I think] came to my venue. None of the crew spoke any English, and the translator they hired didn't speak theater. One of the band was having issues with the keyboard. The translator asked for a piano tuner [an expensive technician that adjusts the strings on an acoustic piano]. The keyboardist just wanted to change the keyboard from organ to piano and couldn't read the menus. You see in Korean, the same or a very similar word means: note, tune, music, sound. He said "change keyboard sound", she translated as "I want a piano tuner". Also some languages don't have a distinction between things like 'have the permission to do', 'have the ability to do', 'begin to do', 'currently doing', 'completed in doing', 'will do later' and 'have done similar in the past'. Instead they have 'I do' and maybe 'I did', so things like pretense, or the order in which things occur, and 'who did whom in the what?' get mixed up.

9:30 Probably means that he was recognized as a leader of France by the British, which he wasn't at first because of a lack of a clear mandate. As I remember it anyway. I don't know enough about the guy or why he even got that leadership recognized. I'm going to read up on him, guy was a bit too influential of 20th century history not to know more about.

DuGaul was recognized as the leader of France IN Britain - something along those lines, I’m guessing. And “the State of Israel being conquered by Germany, I’m guessing has something to do with the Holocaust. - 3/4 of this is just completely wacko ‼️ Great video. MUST show this to your class❗️ 📻🙂
