hey!! i need the words for honor and desire, and the phrases "beauty shall save the world" and "by merit and by culture" in greek.... thanks!!! please email the words to <no email addresses please> as well.
I am looking for some information regarding surnames suffixes. I am researching "Lazarucz", a Hungarian family surname from Transylvania, Romania; specifically, Mezoband (now Band), near Tirgu Mures. I am wondering if the "ucz" is a suffix on the name "Lazar" or "Lazaru". This was my great grandmothers name. I have seen Lazar as a first name as well as a surname. What can you tell me about this? Thank you for your help.
I just got back from traveling across SE Asia for 3 months last year. Had an amazing time! Didn't have the $$ to get some ink done while we were there. Was wondering if someone might be able to to translate a few phrases from English into Khmer Script please? I know there may not be an exact literal translation, but hopefully it will be close.
Below are a few phrases that I'm thinking of. Thank you so much for your time.
UTSAV means a happy occasions, i just want the word to be pronounced the same way in other languages, please do the needful
UTSAV IS A HINDI WORD
So you want it to be pronounced like that in each language? Most of the languages cannot have exactly that pronunciation. This is the closest I can do:
Japanese: ウツァヴ (utsavu)
Arabic: أوتساف (utsaf)
Latin: UTSAV
Chinese: 烏擦夫 (wūtsāfū) (somebody else can probably do it better in Chinese) — This unsigned comment was added by Stephen G. Brown (talk • contribs).
This word is evidently identical to Sanskrit उत्सव(utsava, “jour de fête; joi, bonheur”) in the Sanskrit-French dictionary, which I use. It comes from (deprecated template usage)उड् + (deprecated template usage)सव. If so, if ts is not pronounced as one consonant, then probably Russian ц is inappropriate - in this case only the corresponding spelling would be утсав. Bogorm10:33, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
HEY THANK YOU SO MUCH PPL FOR THE HELP,AND IF
THE NAME IN PRONOUNCED IN OTHER DIFF LANGUAGES ,I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT
You mean other scripts? How about (the closest sounds that I can do)...
Georgian: უცავ (utsav)
Greek: ουτσάβ (outsav)
Korean: 우자프 (ujapeu)
Thai: อุตสาบ (ùtsàap)
—[Both of the above comments were unsigned.]—
Here are some additional phonetic renderings of the name "Utsav" (which I am assuming is pronounced /u.ˈʦɑv/ replace ʦ with t͡s, invalid IPA characters (ʦ)):
Arabic: أُوْتْسَاوْ ('ūtsāw)
Armenian: Ուծավ (Outsav; NB—"ts" here is written with a single letter〈ծ〉)
I'm thinking 不要死不瞑目 might work. It literally means, "Don't die with your eyes not closed." In other words, if your eyes are open when you die, that means that you still have things that you wanted to accomplish, before you died. 死不瞑目 is an idiom in Chinese. -- A-cai14:21, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I am writing a children's book that takes place in Marrakech, Morocco and I am looking fro the vernacular translation for:
"My mother"
"My home"
"My grandmother"
"My father"
Thank you!
I'm no expert, but having lived in Morocco I would say ‘walīdatī’ for ‘my mother’ (spelling is difficult, since the vernacular is hardly ever written, but probably وليدتي). For ‘my father’ I'd say ‘walīdī’ (وليدي). ‘My grandmother’ — ‘zheddatī’ (جدتي). I'm not sure which word they would use for ‘home’ in Morocco. Ƿidsiþ23:24, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Moroccan Arabic is not my language either, but I would have thought امي (ummi) for ‘my mother’, داري (dari) for ‘my home’, and بوي (bui) for ‘my father’. I agree with جدتي (zheddatī) for ‘my grandmother’. But if he’s looking for French as used in Morocco, that’s another story. —Stephen17:32, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Let me correct the Arabic version Widsith has provided: it's والدتي (wālidati) - my mother and والدي (wālidati) - my father, with the long "a", not "i". The other way to say "my father" is أبي (abi) and "my mother" as Stephen said, امي (ummi). The same spelling أبي may be pronounced as "abuyya" in Eastern Arabic. Not sure, which dialect is بوي (bui). :) --Atitarev22:05, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm well aware that it's والد and والدة in standard Aranic, but in Morocco they pronounce it with a long "i". Although they may still spell it in the normal way I suppose. Ƿidsiþ09:33, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

334a, I understand that you are knowledgeable in Aramaic. How good is your Hebrew? Mine is pitiful. If yours is trustworthy and you are up to doing this, could you please translate the following into Hebrew (with pointing if you know it)?
Let my ruins become the ground you build upon.
Now, this sentence is supposed to be spoken with respect towards God, so if you can make it reflect an honorific voice please do so. If you (334a) cannot translate this, please pass this request along to someone who IS well-versed in Hebrew. One more thing, if you know how to express the aforementioned sentence into Aramaic could you do that as well? I sincerely appreciate your assistance!—Strabismus01:48, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
hi i wanted to translate "Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free" into gaelic for a tattoo if somebody could help me out
—the above request was left unsigned by 129.137.153.196 at 17:11, 5 February 2009—
First, surely you mean mahalo. Second, these three words appear to be unconnected, that is, they don’t make a sentence together...is that right? Third, I assume you want the Hawaiian words themselves written in Arabic, and not just the translations of the Hawaiian words. And fourth, kufic is a particular family of Arabic typefaces. You would have to copy the Arabic from here into a program such as Word, WordPad, or Notepad, and then change the font to a Kufi font (which you must have installed on your computer). —Stephen08:07, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
An additional transcription of "Hawaii" (retaining the ʻokina) into Arabic might be:
هاوايئ
Another thing to keep in mind is that none of the Hawaiian terms mentioned here makes use of nā leokani kō (long vowels). Therefore it is possible (and perhaps preferable) to transcribe the three Hawaiian words into Arabic (with pointing) thus:
مَهَلَوْ
هَوَئِئِ (employing the first hamza only to avoid: a) a diphthong "ay" and b) a glide "y")
But when transliterating foreign words, Arabic is not applied as an abjad, but as a true alphabet. That is, alif, waw and yaa’ are used for the vowels, regardless of length. Arabic script is an abjad only when used to write Arabic. —Stephen17:32, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In practice, yes. But compare also the variant spellings of words in Hebrew depending on whether or not pointing is used. At any rate, I was merely representing the Hawaiian words phonetically in Arabic script, WITH respect to vowel length. Just alternate renderings. Not criticizing your transcriptions. :)—Strabismus22:24, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
would u translate my name in all language thx[edit]

Gujarati:
Arabic: نور الدين محمد
Cyrillic: Нуруддин Мухаммед
Greek: Νουρουντίν Μοχάμεντ
arahmeric
Ancient Greek: Νουρυδίν Μωἅμεθ
You can't write ἅ in the middle of a word, it can only be at the start. This spelling would be Μωάμεθ.
The Korean for this name is written this way: 누르 앗딘 무함마드
I wanted to reflect the pronunciation of "Noorudeen" as he presented it in Latin script. Notice, too, that whoever posted the Cyrillic and Greek at the beginning used the long [u] and not an [ə] or [ɯ̆]. Were they wrong? But, yes, the traditional transcription of "Mohammed" in Hangul is rendered thus. BTW, next time please remember to sign your comments, be they comment-comments or counter-comments.—Strabismus21:03, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Again, semantic check here. Do you want slang terms for marijuana in other languages (after all, "slang language" is something of a pleonasm) or do you just want terms like:
Just a note: lameno is a literal "Hawaiianization" of the word "ramen", and isn't in any Hawaiian dictionary yet. If you want other words to consider, nulu is the word for noodle, and kaimine is the word for saimin, another popular noodle dish in HawaiTemplate:okinai. Kal(talk)04:54, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Better yet, why not nulu huki(huki)? Literally "pulled noodle(s)", this would be a calque on the original Chinese (suggested) meaning of "ramen": 拉麺 (lāmiàn). Just a thought.—Strabismus05:02, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The link is not useful, amongst the translations there is no Japanese (for the first meaning), Amharic, Punjabi, Sanskrit and Thai. In the history of the page there are no IP edits which means that the page is probably semi-protected. Whilst that has some advantages, it deprives the users with the respective background, who are too indolent to register, of the possibility to expand the table. Alas, we cannot leave a message before the table unregistered users can add translations to the talk page and after verification they will be inserted. Bogorm21:35, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, are phonetic renderings wanted or just straightforward translations? I ask this because "CAN U WRITE{…}" [emphasis mine] sounds a little ambiguous.—Strabismus22:13, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Actually ёб does mean fuck, or more precisely "I fucked". The infinitive would be ебать (ʸebátʹ). Блядь can mean "whore". And пиздеть means literally "to cunt".
Actually there are verbs пизде́ть/жу (pizdéť), which means "to tell lies" and пи́здить (pízdiť), which means "to steal". Anonymous, 10:31 23 February 2009
Chinese 操 (cào) has semantic leaning towards "fuck".
Japanese 畜生 essentially means "brute" or "beast". Japanese is not as forthright as other languages are when it comes to profanity (especially when dropping the f-bomb). However, the word やる can be used to mean "fuck" or "do" (as in, "I'd do her.").—Strabismus20:45, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thai: The word เย็ด {yed) means "fuck". (ร่วมเพศ,ร่วมประเวณี,มีเพศสัมพันธ์,เอากัน,เสพสม,and many words/phrases/slangs are means "have sex".) --111.84.21.11621:37, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

TRANSLATION MIKE LEE IN GUJARAIT HINDI THAI RUSSIAN NO LATIN I ONLY CHARACTERS SCRIPT[edit]
Usually in transcriptions of Western names. I used the eta to symbolize the open "y" at the end—that is, if "Gary" is being pronounced /ˈɡæɹi(ː)/ and not /ˈɡæɹɪ/. Of course, there's no real equivalent in Modern Standard Greek to the vowel /æ/ as in "cat". Either way, both are fine. But I would use the eta for the "y" [i] at the end.—Strabismus02:14, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
But in Ancient Greek, Γάρη is pronounced /ˈga.rɛː/, and it looks like a feminine name. The closest you can get to Gary in Ancient Greek is Γάρι. —Stephen07:43, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It depends on the dialect. At any rate, I've presented my suggestion and it's now up to Gary to choose for himself. (I just hope this isn't another one of those tattoo decisions!)—Strabismus20:50, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Gary, you haven't asked for these languages but I want to add, anyway. Perhaps, you might be interested. In Russian, there is no consistent way to render /æ/, so we use Cyrillic "а", "э"/"е" (e in "pen"). So "Harry" is Гарри /garri/, seldom Харри /xarri/ but "Gary" is Гэри /geri/ just to make them different.
In Chinese, most common is perhaps 加里 (jiālǐ) (which also means "potassium") but can be as different as 蓋瑞 / 盖瑞 /gàiruì/.
Your name doesn't have a good meaning in Japanese because 下痢 (げり, geri), pardon me, means "diarrhoea", so your name is transliterated either as ゲイリー or ゲーリー (geirī or gērī). I hope you won't be upset about it. Well, my name in Japanese sounds like "hole" and "bird" - 穴 + 鳥, although I spell it アナトリー in Japanese.
The length is often optional in the transliteration into Japanese katakana. My name is usually spelled アナトリー but can be アナトーリー, アナトーリ or アナトリ. --Anatoli22:53, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No consistency in Arabic, either: غاري is the most common, the first letter غ stands for /ɣ/ (ġ), not /g/ but Egyptians will write جاري, which other Arabs may misread as "Jary". Egyptians themselves may get confused when to read ج as /g/ or /dʒ/ (foreign words only, in Egyptian Arabic, it's always /g/).
Oh, of course. I was referring to my suggested Persian spelling of the name "Gary" four comments ago. (“Some Arabic{…}. Also there's Persian{…}”)—Strabismus23:31, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I see people like translating their names into other scripts. I spell my Russian name Анатолий as Anatoli (the other variant is Anatoly). Can someone transliterate my name into Hindi, Gujarati, Thai, Khmer, Bengali, Hebrew and some other scripts (modern, not ancient), please?
ok im getting one of either tattoos that read "Look to the stars" And "Time is only a measurement if it is being measured" and/or "The kingdom of heaven is within you; and whosoever shall know himself shall find it” and i would like it to be in egyptian arabic.... i believe is the term:) thanks so much

Recently I discussed with Ivan_Štambuk how to render the South-Slavic word prasrodstvo to English and although he came up with some suggestions, we are in a cul-de-sac. This word is essential for etymological sections and is often used by South Slavic linguists. The full German æquivalent is Urverwandtschaft, so please someone translate it to English, if there is an appropriate word for that or at least check Ivan's suggestions.

I saw a blog titled How to Learn (But Not Master) Any Language in 1 Hour (Plus: A Favor)[1] and it suggests to have someone translate the following phrases for you to learn a bit about the language and then decide if it's worth your while to study it. (For the record, I am skeptical that one hour will be anywhere near enough.) I thought I knew just the place to ask for this kind of thing: Wiktionary! The phrases are:
The apple is red.
It is John’s apple.
I give John the apple.
We give him the apple.
He gives it to John.
She gives it to him.
I must give it to him.
I want to give it to her.
And I'm going to add some of my own:
He doesn't give it to John
We don't give it to him
I know French already, so I'll translate to demonstrate:
La pomme est rouge
C'est la pomme de John (or Jean)
Je donne la pomme à John
Nous lui donnons la pomme
Il la donne à John (assuming that 'it' means 'the apple')
I share your skepticism. The given phrases are assuming that all cultures/languages have a word for “apple”, “red”, and “John”. Now, red is a VERY common color among almost all cultures, but still it oughtn't be the words included that matter as much as the syntax of the examples. Also, I too am eager to see what other Wiktionarians think.—Strabismus02:06, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That's right. It's used to examine the syntax and grammar of the language with respect to pronouns, noun cases, negation, conjugation, etc. to determine how easy it is to learn these features. These shouldn't by any means be the only criteria to determine how easy a language is to learn, but I'm still curious. Internoob02:34, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As am I. Learing a language takes alot more than one hour. However, that shouldn't discourage anybody. You CAN still learn some good things within an hour. It also depends on one's feelings towards the language in question. If you're being forced to take it in school as a prerequisite for graduating you may or may not like the language; so getting ideas to stick in your memory might be difficult. Whereas, if you're learning by your own choice, chances are there's something about the language that caught your eye/ear in the first place and you've probably already memorized THAT. So, again, it depends. The moral being: learn by HEART, not by ROTE.—Strabismus04:00, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Did you want modern Greek? Ηαγάπηκαταστρέφει. NB—This is a figurative sense and NOT a literal translation as would be suggested by "Love murders." An approximate pronunciation would be /hi a.ˈɣa.pi ka.ta.ˈstɾɛ.ɸɪ/—Strabismus22:15, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What are exactly the Arabic standard vowels and what's their standard IPA, if this can be said about Arabic at all (MSA).
In particular, I am interested in fatha, whether the correct symbols are /ɑ(ː)/ and /æ(ː)/, e.g. قلب /qɑlb/ - "heart" and كلب /kælb/ - "dog". Other candidates are /ɛ̈/, /ɐ/. Is there an online source for it? Anatoli02:55, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If you have an iPod or other similar device, and have an interest in standard Arabic, you ought to check out ArabicPod. It's very fun and EXTREMELY helpful. It's hosted by Mohamed Moshaya and the teacher is one Ehab Saleh. Ehab's pronunciations are outstanding, to say the very least! His renderings are very centralized; e.g., قلب will be pronounced as /qʌlb/, غرفة (room) as /ˈɣʊɾ.fə/, ليش (why) as /lëːʃ/ (and not /lai̯ʃ/), etc. If you are familiar with transcribing what you listen to using the IPA, you should be able to pick up ALOT of good tips from Ehab. Check it out! :)—Strabismus04:03, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Strabismus. I am actually familiar with ArabicPod but I stopped using it when they introduced subscriptions, I saved a number of transcripts before the site a paid one. I agree his accent is great. No, I can't convert sounds to IPA easily but I am searching for an online source describing the Arabic phonology in a more or less standard IPA. Yes, I am very interested in MSA but not spending too much time on it right now, as I am busy with Mandarin and Japanese but sometimes spend whole evenings, reading and listening to new texts.

You can still get the episodes for free via iTunes or any other podcatcher. Or are you concerned with getting the pdf transcriptions as well? If so, I am too, but the strange thing is that I have never even seen the pdf transcriptions; even though I've heard about them (via their mentionings on the podcasts). I can kind of pick up on the subtleties through listening, but I too would like to "see" what I am hearing. At any rate, have you looked at the WP article on Arabic phonology? It deals mostly with MSA. There's also a pdf you can download on Arabic phonology. And if you're curious, there's a discussion on three areas of Arabic phonology. Google books has a few limited previews on this topic as well; e.g., this. Enjoy and good luck!—Strabismus22:03, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Strabismus, although listening resources are useful, I already have some. I can tell, which sounds are pronounced but I'd like something supported by reliable sources. For example, I can't say with 100% certainty how much of vowel reduction exists in Arabic. So, is مدينة pronounced /mæˈdiːnɐ/, /məˈdiːnɐ/ or /mæˈdiːnæ/? To me, the first is correct but if I decide that this is one or the other, this will be an "original research".
I wonder if someone can help with a complete list of consonants, which affect the choice between the choice between [æ] and [ɑ] (pronunciation of fatha). What are the other consonants, apart from /ħ ʕ tˤ dˤ ðˤ sˤ/, which cause [ɑ]? I think /ɣ/ should be included (e.g. غداً). What about /x/ (e.g. خمسة)? Not so sure about /r/. Anatoli02:59, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The emphatic consonants almost always alter the following vowel. Same goes with the pharyngeals ح and ع, sometimes غ and occasionally خ. These may vary from dialect to dialect but the important thing to remember is that consonants pronounced with emphasis or tension often make it difficult for the muscles of the throat and tongue to return to their normal position in time before the following vowel is articulated.—Strabismus20:21, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Are you using the jussive? i.e., "let such-and-such happen" Also, "the ground you build upon" could probably be rendered in other ways; e.g., "a foundation for you", etc.—Strabismus20:20, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!
I would love to have some help translating my half Tamil son's name (Tyler William-Zaraja) into Tamil. I am aware that his name has letters that are not in the Tamil alphabet. I just want him to know what it would look like in his father's native language¹. thanks
¹Then why not ask the father how it's written? Also, Zaraja is the name of a place in Yemen, is this perhaps where the boy receives his name? Another spelling would be ஸராஜ.—Strabismus20:05, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Because his father died.
thanks for the translation Stephen. It is appreciated.
I am sorry to hear that! How did your son receive his name? Is it related to Zarājah in Yemen? Or is it from a Dravidian source?—Strabismus20:21, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Actually it is based on Suraj, but my family name is Zarate so in absolute american style i combined them. Not usual, but it means alot to us. And I have a few Yemenite friends who do appreciate the name. Thank you again for the translations. ;)

Hi i am wanting to get a phrase "live the life you love, love the life you live"
tattooed in arabic, can anyone translate this into arabic script?
Do you really want such a contradictory statement tattooed? On one hand it implies that if you are not living the life you love, you should change it (live the life you love). On the other hand it says you don't have to change your life, only love it. Mallerd09:36, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
But in English it sounds good, irrespective of meaning. Part of the reason is the alliteration, so it may not be as good in other languages. Since this is for a permanent tattoo, be sure that you verify this with at least 2 or 3 native speakers before you use it. It can probably be improved on.
What I would like you to translate is a name in Turkish.It's my sons name which is EGE. Its EGEAN in English.Please if you can translate it into Sanskrit it would be greatly appreciated.Thank you so much for taking your time to help me.

I need the phrases "Where are you going?" and "What the fuck (or hell) does it matter to you?" translated into Russian for a project that I am working on. Thanks
"What the fuck does it matter to you?" - A stronger translation would be
"Тебя это ебёт?" (tebyá éto yebyót?) (Does it bother you? (literally: fuck you?)). The usage is similar to English "What the fuck does it matter to you?" Russian ебать can be used in sentences of type "I don't give a fuck" - "Меня не ебёт" (Menyá ne yebyót), but also: "Мне по хую" (Mne pó khuyu).
"Какого хуя тебе до этого?". (kakóvo khúya tebé do étovo?) (what dick is it to you?). Russian хуй (khooy) (dick, cock) is used as "fuck" in such cases. Anatoli04:46, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Journey of truth - translate into Kufic script[edit]
Hi Can you please translate " Journey of truth" in several types of kufic script. I wanted to get a tatoo and have heard that some types of kufic script are very elegant.
Thanks so much!
I would say: الرحلة في معرفة الحقيقة. However, since it’s a permanent tatoo, you should verify it with a native speaker or two. As for the kufic script, that’s a typeface. You have to copy the Arabic to a word processor such as Word or Notepad and change the font to Kufic. You will have to search for the Kufic font that you like and install it on your computer first. Kufic is a monumental script, meaning that it is designed to be carved into stone monuments. You might prefer a nice Diwani, which is elegant and very beautiful. —Stephen19:19, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
can anyone please translate from english to latin the phrases "walk with me" and " Good Night, God Bless"
I want this as a tattoo for my late grandma and would like to make sure it is correct.
Thank You
Michelle
If the command of "walk with me" is to a single person, then you would use "ambulamecum". Saying"good night" is more difficult. The literal translation "bonanox" means that the night is a good one; it does not mean that the person is leaving, as it would in English. To say "goodbye" in Latin, use "vale". To say "God bless", you could say (literally) "may you be blessed by God", which in Latin is "benedicireDeo". --EncycloPetey16:26, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The "way"? Not sure what sort of way you mean, and the meaning of the whole sentence is pretty obscure. If you explain what you mean by it, it'll be easier for someone to translate it for you. But a word-for-word translation might be אניהדרךוהאמת והחיים.—msh210℠02:01, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aim for success, not perfection.
Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life.
I love the "meaning" of this phrase and I want to get a tattoo of it, but obviously only if it's the true meaning.
Ua ola loko i ke aloha.
If anyone knows the TRUE translation of this (to english) let me know! thanks!
It means "Love gives life within." It means that love is necessary to your physical, spiritual and emotional welfare. It is a bit difficult to analyze without studying the language, but literally, it says: "inceptively life interior to the love". Adjectives follow nouns (as in Spanish), and "ua" is a perfective/inceptive aspect marker that signals completed actions or new situations. —Stephen19:04, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can u translate the english paragraph below to Tamil[edit]
You may have difficulty accepting love or intimacy without strings, or are tired of faking it or being exploited. Looking in the mirror and reassess the value and power you place in sex, beauty or compliance. You have much more to offer in a relationship. This habitual process of distancing yourself emotionally could be a defensive mechanism to keep from being abandoned or rejected by love again. There might not be any happiness or future in this solitary illusion or passionless situation. Take the opportunity to finally give voice to the tidal wave of hurt -- then get back out there. Start over and follow your heart. Once you meet your own emotional needs and find self-acceptance through self-forgiveness, you can let go of the past and let love in.

Nemame (немаме) is we have no in the Western Bulgarian dialects (aka E-dialects). It is not used in written Bulgarian (where the correct form is нямаме), but is widely understood.

Stuff I heard on Naruto and need translated... plz help! thx![edit]
Hi! here's some stuff I heard on Naruto and was able to link to the subtitles. If anything is wrong, plz tell me and let me know the real translation.
I only used my ears, so I'll type how I heard it, just to give you an idea.
Ossandadoh (doh as in Homer Simpson's doh! and da as in dice) - old man / old timer ? i know its pejorative though, I figured that much.
おっさんだどー, ossan dadō ― that is/this is/I'm a middle-aged man (with a rural or crude accent).
Sassandene - dodgy looking, rustic. the context is that they were looking at a sort of ghost town and they commented that i looked a little sassandene
lol
Meeteh (eh like the sound ai in air) - look, as in Look! over there! (見て, mite, look)
Mareemeeteh (Ma as in mine) - look around you (just guessing: まわりを見て, mawari o mite, look around you.)
komeenossai (ai as in pie) - (I'm) sorry (ごめんなさい, gomen nasai, I’m sorry...it is very, very hard to figure out your spellings...these few were all I could guess. —Stephen10:31, 22 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]
achassoh (the A's as in pie again and the oh like Homer's doh! yet again) - you don't say... / interesting... the guy said it in a sneaky way.
I hope my explanations are useful in this translation, if not I'm sorry for not making myself clear enough, but it's difficult to explain the context of these things sometimes. Thanks to whoever decides to help me! :D

A normal menstrual period lasts from 2 to 7 days. The normal cycle patterns can range from 21 to 35 days. When bleeding occurs that is not part of the regular cycle; periods are longer or heavier than normal; occurs between periods; time between periods is longer than normal; or there is an absence of periods, this is called abnormal or irregular uterine bleeding. There are various causes of abnormal bleeding, but the most common is a hormone imbalance. At both ends of the menstrual life of a woman, periods may be irregular. Reasons for abnormal periods can be both normal and abnormal. The most normal reason is pregnancy. Hormone imbalance (not enough or too much of certain hormones) can also be a common reason. This can occur as a result of weight loss or gain; heavy exercise; stress; illness; or certain medications. The most common result of a hormone imbalance is loss of ovulation. If this occurs over a long period of time, a condition called endometrial hyperplasia can occur. Endometrial hyperplasia is the result of constant estrogen bombardment of the endometrium (the lining of the uterus shed every month with your period). Untreated, endometrial hyperplasia (when the lining of the uterus becomes too thick) can sometimes turn into cancer.
There are many reasons for abnormal/irregular periods. The chart below will list the most common reasons, their cause, other symptoms that may occur, diagnostic methods and treatment options. Remember, this is not a replacement for the advice of your care giver, but rather information to help you become aware of your body.

"Koi _____ nai hega zindagi da vich"

you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself,

I don't think there is a direct translation for the word 'regrets' but if you do find it out put it in the space and that will be the translation of it.

Dark Retribution
Storm of Sorrows
I am working on a story and would very much appreciate these being translated into Arabic using script that english only readers can understand. Being an English only reader myself, I have become frustrated with the translators that put it in Arabic script an do not give english letter/pronunciations for them.
Thanks
Here's my attempt, I am not a native speaker, wait or seek confirmation!:
Hello,
I am looking to have the Lords Prayer,translated into Khmer Script, so I can have it tattooed onto myself. I have made numerous requests to khmertattoo@hotmail.com to use their translation services, but they have yet to send me an invoice. This is extremely important to me and I am hoping you can help me. If you do offer your services, please send me an invoice for how much you charge to translate the prayer into Khmer script. Below is the prayer I am trying to get translated and my email address. I hope you can help and I will patiently await your response. Thank You-
" Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy Name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day, our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen."
Kind regards,
Michelle Wellington

Pidgin means a somewhat simple form of a language, since said language is not spoken by the speakers of the pidgin form. Anyhow, which one do you want? In other words, what area do you believe your pidgin English comes from? User:Mallerd (Zeg et es meisje) 22:28, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My grandma had a tatoo on her forearm that read, "I BELONG TO JESUS".
I wanted to get the same in her memory but in aramaic possibly esterangelo script.
But I wanted JESUS spelt as YESHI, as His closest followers fondly refered to Him so.
Could anyone please help me. I would be very thankful.
Thanks a lot again in advance.
English to Georgian request "Good night, beautiful"[edit]
Hello, I would appreciate both the latin phoenetic spelling and the Georgian alphabet spelling to sign a letter "Good night, beautiful". If there is a better substitution for "good night", I'd appreciate knowing the literal translation. Many thanks!
Hawaiian to English Translation of Ho`ola Ka Haku and proper appearance for a name[edit]
PLEEEEEEEEEEASE would someone translate Ho`ola Ka Haku, any and all meanings, literal and simple. and also if this is given to someone as a second middle name how should it have been given properly and how should it appear properly on a birth certificate, as 3 words or 1 longer word? thank you! it's for my son and i just want to make sure everything is proper. i sincerely thank you :)
hoʻolā ka haku — sun the master; sun, the one who is master.
hoʻōla ka haku — life the master; life, the one who is master.
but i'm confused now, isn't ho`ola healing and haku lord? so The Lord Heals is not correct? >_<
anyone?...anyone?...bueller?...bueller?... no seriously, help? thank you!
ka means the, or the one who. haku means lord, master, overseer, employer, owner, possessor, proprietor. hoʻōla means to save, to heal, to cure, to spare; also, it means salvation, healer, or savior. So yes, the phrase could be translated as "the Lord heals" or "the Lord saves". —Stephen14:05, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the translation is most likely hoʻōla ka Haku, meaning "the Lord heals/saves" or "the Lord gives life". I'm pretty sure that the prefix "hoʻo-" (seen here as contracted with the word "ola", meaning life) is a causative. Kal(talk)03:55, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
COULD SOMEONE PLEASE TRANSLATE THE FOLLOWING PHRASE FOR ME.
"MY MOTHER IS MY STRENGTH" either in celtic or Gaelic
many thanks
> Is í mo mháthair mo bhrí......thats Irish (Gaeilge), but get it confirmed from another source, i havent spoken Irish in a while and the grammar can be tricky. You can use "neart" instead of "brí", but neart is more physical strength where as brí means power
i need to translate "as it was in the beginning so shall it be in the end" or " as it wsa in the beginning so will it be in the end" in aramaic!!!! pls its for a tattoo
could you translate "fuck you" as close as possible in sanskrit, if poss.
Having a tattoo with "fuck you" written in sanskrit is highly offensive and disrespectful and i would not recommend it. Having lived in the likes of Thailand, Burma and India, where sanskrit is prominetly used, many Buddhists would take offence to having a disrespectful phrase in sanskrit. I recommend getting it in another language, maybe Hindi??? Sanskrit and Hindi do look seemingly similiar.
oo ok, i didn't really think about that just part of my tatoo is already in sanskrit and i wanted it to match! could you do it in hindi for me then?

Would anyone know how to translate certain English names into Romanized Sanskrit (and their representative Sanskrit symbols)? I prefer the Sanskrit text over symbols.
Hi, could someone translate these phrases for me please?

Hebrew or Arabic translation for tattoo of the words "Live life without regret" (request unsigned by 81.140.74.225)

Propter periculum sacra deorum ad portam portabamus, et Anchisae dabamus.
I make that out as (roughly): "Because of the risk, we were carrying [sacra] of god toward the gate and giving (it) to Anchisae (the father of Aeneas)." I'm not quite sure how best to translate the word "sacra", but it means "holy things" or maybe "relics"? We had this very same question in 2006. --EncycloPetey19:41, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Translate a song from english to hawaiian...[edit]
I need to translate this song into hawaiian again, Translated it to english to have a friend help add lines so...
Listen to me
Small rose, come
Come here to me
If I could I would, gentle moon
Oh, gentle moon. Let me be.
Here I am
Calling to you, listen to me
It is exciting
Sweet sound,
lift me up
Breathe me in.
The sound
Of your fearless voice, two of us lost in the mist
O my beloved
I shall clear the way,
Sailing forward on a
Endless sea.
Tell the refrain
Of you and I
Lost in desire
Never let it end,
Our vermillion hearts.
Beating as one.
It's for a tattoo, though some other ideas i had were:
3) "only God can judge me"
4) "notw"
I'm trying to find as many options as there can be, in VARIOUS languages.
Hebrew:
1) "carpe diem" = "תפוס את היום" or "אכול ושתו כי מחר נמות" or "קרפה דיאם"...since it's Latin we can just use transliteration into Hebrew characters of the same phrase
2) "strength" = "כוח" or "עוצמה"
3) "only God can judge me" = "יש אלוקים בשמים" means "there is God in the sky"
Need two phrases translated into LATIN from ENGLISH:
- DISPOSABLE HERO
- More than just a number
Your help is appreciated.
please translate journey into Gaelic

Hi, please, can someone tell me what is заплепку in the following sentence and what is its singular uninflected form? Thanks.
— Треснуло копыто! Это ничего. Я вас научу, покажу, заплепку какую положить. (unsigned by User:Rosswood40)
A small correction: Треснуло копыто! Это ничего. Я вас научу, покажу, заклепку какую положить.
singular uninflected form - заклёпкаf (ё is usually written as е) - rivet, the letter "ё" is stressed in most cases.
Happy reading! English: "The hoof's cracked! That's nothing. I'll teach you what to do and show you what kind of rivet to use." L. Tolstoy, War and peace. Read this part online: [4]
Hi!
I'd like to make sense of this sentence in Swedish:

The Peoria spoke the w:Miami-Illinois language. David Costa published a book on the language, The Miami-Illinois Language, in 2003, wherein he reconstructs the Miami-Illinois language and all its grammatical features (ISBN: 0803215142). You can obtain a copy for about $90 including shipping. Miami-Illinois is an Algonquian language similar to Ojibwe. In Ojibwe, forever my father’s daughter would be something like nimbaabaa odaanis gaagigenindaaw. If you find that book, perhaps you can put a translation together. —Stephen04:57, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Words found in an article about a Pharmaceutical Company[edit]
I will write a part of the article,and put among parentesis the two words I can´t understand. I need the meaning in English, and then I will translate to Spanish, wich is my job.
Organon, the human pharmaceutical unit of OBS, was a strong global operation with impressive Research and Development and (late-stage pipeline), while the company's animal health's unit, Intervet, (was a powerhouse ) in its sector, with cutting-edge vaccine capailities
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR WHATEVER GUIDELINES I MAY GET
pipeline = productos en desarrollo (es decir, all of the pharmaceutical compounds being tested for a pharmaceutical firm)
English to Chinese (Traditional and/or Simplified)[edit]
I've been trying to translate "Trust Few" and "Fearless" into Chinese (Traditional and/or Simplified) and have had no luck. Variations of them like "No Fear" or "Trust Few People" would be great as well, just need it somewhat close to the originals.
I would appreciate any help with this, and thank you in advance. (75.129.163.11)
Here's my attempt but I am not a native speaker. I find it more natural to say: 不信任任何人 (bù xìnrèn rènhé rén) - "don't trust any people", which has the same meaning the same as "Trust Few" in Chinese. "No fear" or "fearless" is 無畏 / 无畏 (wúwèi). Anatoli12:07, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Could this be a typo - Möbel (furniture), not mögel? Nouns are always capitalised in German. The sentence will then make sense. Mögel doesn't exist in modern German but there is such a surname. --Anatoli22:35, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's a complete sentence, not a subordinate clause, so Möbel wouldn't make sense (nor would any noun), because in that case "gehen" would have to be analyzed as finite, and a finite verb cannot appear clause-final to the displacement of other constituent phrases ("in Erfüllung") in the main clause. My interpretation is that "mögel" is acting as the finite verb, and "gehen" is infinitive. I'm thinking it's along the lines of a slang gloss for "Mögen sie in Erfüllung gehen" cf. English "May they be fulfilled". Also, compare the south German diminutive suffix -le (mög-el). Comments? Native speakers? CMEHalverson21:51, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You need two things in order to read Khmer. First, a Khmer font, such as these or these fonts. Second, you need a recent version of the usp10.dll shaping engine. What operating system are you using? If you have Windows 7 or Vista, then you are in good shape. If you have an older version of Windows, then you probably will need to download a new usp10.dll. —Stephen02:23, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Could someone please translate "I BELONG TO YESHUA" to hebrew please i need it for a tatoo.
Thanks in advance.— This comment was unsigned.
I don't know the English word YESHUA. If you mean Jesus (of Nazareth), then I think אני שייך לישו should do if you're male, and אני שייכת לישו if you're female. Check with a native speaker, though, before getting a permanent tattoo.—msh210℠20:32, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Stephen, you seem to be the Khmer expert around here, so I'll ask you directly. In each episode of the podcast (or vodcast) for 'Extreme Khmer', Frank Smith says what I would imagine to mean "Extreme Khmer" in Khmer (every episode is entirely in Khmer). The pronunciation of the phrase he uses is (to the best of my representation) /kʰmai kɾai lɛŋ/. First of all, what does this phrase exactly mean? Secondly, how is it written in Khmer? It's been puzzling me for years and, as my Khmer is very limited, I thought I'd ask an expert. Thank you.--Strabismus21:10, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to translate the following from spanish to latin " Amo la vida "
