Translation by peter muiruri (#29654)

Source text image

I began the revision and realized that it was a humongous pile of excrement produced by Gurgle!

Nonetheless, I delivered a perfect translation... but the customer had my sublime work edited by some illiterate jerk who ruined it!

And they published online my now-defective translation alongside my name!
Nilianza kuisoma tena ndipo nikagundua kilikuwa kibunda cha taka kilicho tayarishwa na Gurgle.
Hata hivyo niliistafsiri ipasavyo … lakini mteja wangu aliichukua ile tafsiri akampelekea mhariri mjinga wa mwisho aliyeiharibu kabisha.
Kisha wakaichapisha ile waraka mbovu kwa mtandao na wakaweka jina langu.
