You may be familiar with examples of Psuedo German (actually english) such as this:
<B>
ACHTUNG! ALLES LOOKENPEEPERS!
Das computermachine ist nicht fuer gefingerpoken und mittengrabben. Ist easy schnappen der springenwerk, blowenfusen und poppencorken mit spitzensparken. Ist nicht fuer gewerken bei das dumpkopfen. Das rubbernecken sichtseeren keepen das cotten-pickenen hans in das pockets muss; relaxen und watchen das blinkenlichten.
</B><P>Do any of you European (or elsewhere) Keen Spacers have any examples of <B>Psuedo English</B>(actually some other language)?<P>Any samples would be considered to be
verrrrry innnnnteresting!

I remember this ending in 'blinkenlights', but otherwise it's a pretty famous quote. The system administration at the uni here[0] is pretty big on blinkenlights.<P>For examples on Dutch speudo-English, read the poems of John O'Mill. Here's one:<P>A terrible infant called Peter,
sprinkled his bed with a gheeter.
His father got woost,
took hold of a knoost,
and gave him a pack on his meter.<P>My father has several Dutch/English books full of great misunderstandings.

Here's another one:
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>
Two greedy guys from brocklehurst
ate so much boor a coal with worst
that one grew sick
and got the hick
and the other gulzy freight sack burst!

I'm afraid I'm not very good at remembering these kind of things, but I'll try not to forget this one.
