I think this is a great idea.

What the fuck is <Language>'s [some string] in <another Language>?

[some string] can even be common objects methods, like Array.splice

For each mapping, you should allow comments to fill in the specifics. For example, VB has "String.left()" and "String.right()", which can both be achieved in by PHP's substr() if you pass the right params. Boy.. am I going to be hated for the languages I just mentioned...



I don't hate you. I think pity or scorn would be more appropriate. ;)
