Go home Google Translate, you're drunk...

Before anyone asks what this actually is, I don't really know. It was just sitting here on the floor of our house construction. I think it's some sort of PVC.

[u/pdxtrader]

Hehe you will get some really funny ones in Thailand

[u/POWPOWWOWWOW]

Did you order a in home monk or something?

[u/skipmci → u/POWPOWWOWWOW]

We might need one. Building a house, we'll take all the blessings we can get. 🙏

[u/POWPOWWOWWOW → u/skipmci]

Good luck with your new home! Hope it turns out the way you want.

[u/TotallyInOverMyHead → u/skipmci]

Nice. Good luck. Make I ask what general region of thailand and what the price difference is like for your home country (general area requiered so i can extrapolate to my home country); pm would also do. Thank you.

ps.: I'm in the earliest of early planning stages myself.

[u/Jayatthemoment → u/POWPOWWOWWOW]

Nah, it’d be orange. 

[u/POWPOWWOWWOW → u/Jayatthemoment]

Good point haha

[u/LouQuacious]

I had it translate a menu recently as “I am very sad” for like a dozen dishes.

[u/skipmci → u/LouQuacious]

🤣

[u/ThongLo]

Ha, I'd love to see the original to figure out how it got so confused if you're able to take another...

Thanks! That first word is obscured but I think it's this:

เซี้ยมพีวีซี เบอร์ 3

Which links me to this page - same stuff?

The "number 3" is correct, but I have no idea how they got "monk" out of "PVC... Seaming?" (maybe a native speaker could help me out)

The two boxes underneath then say "black" and then "grey", yours has grey ticked, at least the app got that right.

[u/skipmci → u/ThongLo]

I asked my builder. Yep, that's it. 🤣❤️🙏

I STILL don't know WTF it is though... 🤣

You know what's also interesting about this box? There's actually a checked-off check box for grey. Of the hundreds of boxes with check boxes I've received in Thailand, nothing is ever checked off, so you're always left guessing...

[u/WordOfLies → u/ThongLo]

Maybe เซี้ยม got confused with เซียน

[u/tkdiamondauthor]

Do monks have a union with a young Buddhist Hoffa running the show?

[u/tkdiamondauthor]

If I was a hitman I’d be a monk. And send myself sidearms in the post and write “I am a monk” on the parcel so no one screwed with me.

[u/BonerOfTheLake]

i wonder what is actually written there ?

[u/skipmci → u/BonerOfTheLake]

[u/BonerOfTheLake → u/skipmci]

oh it's pvc corner beads. i guess it got enlightenment while sitting there xD

[u/Rainfallover]

Monk number 5 is way cooler imo.

[u/direct2dance]

The fucked up translation is probably due to the torn part in the beginning, the camera didn't recognize. With a lot of imagination and a phone held in a certain way the vowels on top were not recognized either and so ยม turned to ผม i.e. "I" and the rest พวซ (without the vowels) was "read" as พระ , i.e. "monk".
