I want to thank Ashley @ Red-Haired Ash Reads for tagging me! Ashley has a fantastic blog, and, if you haven’t already, you should totally go and check it out! This tag was originally created by Eryn @ Love Your Shelf, and it sounds like so much fun!
The Rules:
- Pick the last book you read.
- Put that book in Google Translate and translate it into 3 different languages, then back to English. (Please put which languages you used to translate them!)
- See how close (or how far) it is to the original book title
- Lastly, put the original book title at the bottom and talk about your last read!
Fun, right? Let’s take a look at the translated title and see if you can figure out the original.
Translated Title:
Bastard of My Heart
Languages:
English – Romanian – Swahili – Turkish – English
The translation isn’t super far off! Can you guess it?
HINT: It’s an upcoming book by Lorraine Heath.
Actual Title:
Scoundrel of My Heart
I just started reading Scoundrel of My Heart today, and I’m enjoying it! I’ve been in such a historical romance mood lately, and I love Lorraine Heath! I was excited to hear that she had a new series and was thrilled to receive this ARC!
I Tag:
- Dini @ Dinipanda Reads
- Becky @ Becky’s Book Blog
- Janine @ The World Was Hers for the Reading
- Alexa @ Writing Across the Universe
- You!

What an amazing idea for a tag! As a languages teacher, GT is my mortal enemy but it does yield some funny results!

Ooh, how fun! I think I’ve seen one other blogger do this one before and that translation was so off and literal. This one was pretty good! 😍 Can’t wait to give it a try! Thanks for the tag 😊
