YOU SAID:
I look the birds while they chip away
INTO JAPANESE
彼らが欠けている間、私は鳥を見ます
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I see birds while they are missing
INTO JAPANESE
行方不明の鳥が見える
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I see a missing bird
INTO JAPANESE
行方不明の鳥が見えます
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I see a missing bird
That didn't even make that much sense in English.
