When people from other countries insist on speaking their own language, someone has to do the interpreting for those of us who only speak American, and "The Daily Show's" crack news team does it better than anyone. Take a look at the mash-up they created of some of their greatest moments in translation losing.

My favorite was the translation of Queen Elizabeth II's speech into American. It was very much needed, because I don't understand the British language.

As a Scotsman it makes me sad whenever I read an article concerning The Daily show on Huffpost because it's my favourite TV show and the clips are never available in my country.

I'm Canadian...so if I can't tune it in...it's gone like the wind for me too. I hate that the re-broadcast rights can be blocked on internet streaming.

Jon Stewart, like most comedians, has no sense of humor.

Chavez is funnier than he is. Jon Stewart doesn't understand f.a.hrt. jokes.

jon stewart is CONSTANTLY on vacation-- i dont even tune in half the time cause im tired of getting let down when i see its a repeat.

also.. do they pay huffington post to post their clips? cause they have a new clip everyday regardless of weather they are on vacation or not...
