When translating something from English to Japanese, don't try to turn English into Japanese, but find the Japanese equivelent (which requires more studying, or course, as that can only be achieved through either immersion of insurmountable hours of practice).
For example, instead of translating "Oh my God!" to 俺の神！, you would say a slew of other things: "まったく、やれやれ、くそっ、なんぞ・・・", because 俺の神 may make sense to you, but is utter nonsense.

I offer free Japanese lessons on my home site 「here! 」
[Note: I am proficient in the language (even proficient enough to get hired at a university for teaching), but do not look to me before a native or someone more proficient, like Nagoyankee]
