The Gettysburg Address

The following is Abraham Lincoln's stirring "Gettysburg Address" as interpereted by MS Word's speech recognition tool. It's good to know that there's something as much fun as Google's language tools.

Four score and seven years ago and were fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and any kids in a proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in the Greek civil war testing whether the knees or any niece and so conceived and submitted and we're. We're meant a great battlefield where we are confident the portion of the deal as a final resting place for those who hear gave their lives about niece and what it is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

When a larger sense we cannot guarantee we cannot concentrate we cannot handle this grant. The brave men living in the struggle to have concentrated far above the war powers to enter the track. The world little note nor long remember what we see here we can never forget what the media is for us to live in runners, to be dedicated into the unfinished work with Denny KO four years have thus far so nobly against. It is rather frosted be here that it integrates a screaming are dedicated to the great passer mean for us that from the sun and NT increase in motion in a cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion that we hear highly resolved of the stencil not have died in vain, that this nation under god shall have the new birth of freedom, and not government of the people, buying the people, for the people shall not perish from year.

  1. That is very funny, and I guess very sad in a way.

    Yeah, the tech will get better, but it's not like everyone reads the Gettysburg Address and understands what's going on. And I wonder if the tech was created not so much to aid understanding, but replace it in some fundamental sense.

  2. This was just in:

    "A new copy of the Gettysburg address was discovered among Lincoln's old documents. Contrary to popular belief the Gettysburg address does not mention our civil war, but rather the Greek Civil War, although it does peripherally deal with the tesile strength of Lincoln''s niece's knees. According to one famous historian, "People hear what they want to hear, and Lincoln knew that. So even though he spoke gibberish, he knew it would be interpreted as a great speech. From his stirring 'Four score and seven years ago and were fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and any kids in a proposition that all men are created equal.' to his memorable ' that we hear highly resolved of the stencil not have died in vain, that this nation under god shall have the new birth of freedom, and not government of the people, buying the people, for the people shall not perish from year.', a real masterpiece."

    So Microsoft was rioght and it i us who have erred.
