Since we sometimes see queries about translations into different languages and how words are or should be pronounced, here's a cool tool you can use to waste many hours--or perhaps save an hour now and then:
http://www.pollyglotto.com/

It appears to be a speech synthesis link with Google's translator, so I imagine there will be some interesting errors. But still... way cool. It's also "donationware", so if you use it for anything more than entertainment (and even then), consider making a donation.
