If you feed into the Google translator "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party," and click on "English to French," you get:

Est maintenant l'heure pour tous les bons hommes de

venir a l'aide de leur partie.

And if you feed that into the translator and click on "French to English," you get:

Is now the hour for all the good men to come using their part.

This week's contest: Find us some comical translations-and-back using the Google translator (click on "Language Tools" on the Google.com home page). Feed some passage of English text into the tool -- 25 words max -- and ask it to translate it into one of the five languages offered; then copy the result back into the tool and ask it to translate that back to English. Warning: It's very important this week to come up with text that other contestants aren't likely to submit; if we get more than three identical entries of a passage, we won't use it. Obviously, you need the Internet for this contest. Those of you who don't have Internet

access get the week off; you can pull out your abacuses and finish your taxes.

First-prize winner receives the Inker, the official Style Invitational Trophy. First runner-up wins a "Today" show baseball cap hand-autographed by Katie Couric ("Good morning!" it says perkily).

Other runners-up win the coveted Style Invitational Loser T- shirt. Honorable mentions get one of the lusted-after Style Invitational Magnets. One prize per entrant per week. Send your entries via e-mail to losers@washpost.com. Snail-mail entries are not accepted. Deadline is Monday, April 5. Put the week number in the subject line of your e-mail, or you risk being ignored as spam. Include your name, postal address and phone number with your entry. Contests are judged on the basis of humor and originality. All entries become the property of The Washington Post. Entries may be edited for taste or content. Results will be published April 25. No purchase required for entry. Employees of The Washington Post, and their immediate relatives, are not eligible for prizes. Pseudonymous entries will be disqualified. The revised title for next week's contest is by Josh Borken of Bloomington, Minn. This week's contest was suggested more or less by Russell Beland of Springfield.

Report from Week 547, in which we asked for things that an existing brand name would be bad for: The Empress received 462 e- mails for this contest, many of which contained dozens of entries each, and almost all of which contained an entry suggesting that Microsoft would be a bad name for an erectile-dysfunction drug. Other entries too common to reward: Cheerios for a funeral home, Next Day Blinds for a laser eye surgery center, and Redskins for a football team. The category of laxatives really got you going, so to speak; the litany of bad names included Outback, Grey Poupon, Jiffy Lube, Chunky, Pump & Spray, Big Brownie Blast, Quicken and, but of course, IBM.
