Hmm, let me try.

No. This is not for German learning. Then you can't shit post in the Spray Machine.

How close did I get?

Pretty close, but you skipped some nouns and you have too many "not"s in your sentence. The correct translation is "no, that is the time for learning German. Then you can shitpost in two languages". Zeit is the word for time, and Sprachen means languages.

Thank you!

Zeit threw me off and had no idea what Sprachen machen meant.

Machen -> make

The translation by amoistgrandpa is "Then you can shitpost in two languages", which is good English, a more literal translation would be "then you can make shitposts in two languages"

This is what I meant. I’m still learning German, so there may be mistakes.

Or speak-things, depending on how spicy you want to get translating Sprachen.
