    i'm not sure about the translation software, and it's been over a quarter of a century (yikes - how's that for a disclaimer) since I took French in college, but I'm reading your title as "Give Your Cycle" -- is that right?

    Isn't "bicycle" "bicyclette" in French?

    As a French speaker, I'm not sure what the title of your blog is supposed to be. I find translation software to be pretty humorous, but not much more than that. I tend to believe that any mistakes should be my own; translation software makes many mistakes and you won't even be aware of them. Stick with the original. Anyone reading the translation is going to focus on all the odd phrases, and it will reflect poorly on your blog.

    Me too.
    You could probably run a phrase endlessly through a number of languages with each getting further and further from the original meaning.
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.
