You need to globalise the app, NZ you need add "hey" to the end of the sentence and "i" with "u", for Oz just stick a "but" on the end of every sentence. I'll get the thing released when it comes through and then we can watch the ultra tight get their tits in a tangle.

For the Oz version, you also have to replace every '.' with a '?' to get the intonation right.

And don't forget the Welsh version: stick 'io' on the end of every verb, and get a six year old to spell the rest of it, Boyo.

I think we may be on a winner here - don't the scotch just randomise the alphabet.

Here in the north east of England, we add 'like' to the end of every sentence like.

Don't forget the random insertion of "pet", "canny", "bonnie lad" and "bonnie lass".

Ääähm... In switzerland we randomly insert 'Ääähm" at the start of every sentence.

No all public speakers seem to do that, without the amulet of course, that may be localised.

Since Umlaut is a word of german origin (one of the few ones which are actually a part of the english language and not just used by badly english speaking germans) I translate it for you:
Um: Around (Um den Baum rennen = Run around the tree)
Laut: Noise, loud

Gives you: AROUNDNOISE, or AROUNDLOUD

To add to the other localizations, you need to think about the regions where they added 'init' to the end.

"What Turing gave us for the first time (and without Turing you just couldn't do any of this) is he gave us a way of thinking about and taking seriously and thinking in a disciplined way about phenomena that have, as I like to say, trillions of moving parts.

Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett

Determining the end of a sentence is actually a pretty hard problem.
