Since this is a multilingual dictionary in English, ask your question in English, specify from which language your word/phrase is and into which language(s) you would like to have it translated. It would be appreciated if those people providing translations added them to the entry of the requested word. Also see Wiktionary:Requested entries to request an entry. For fast translations, you might consider using Google Translate or Yahoo! Babelfish. Both sites make imperfect translations in a wide range of languages; if you are looking for something for a tattoo, it is highly recommended that you get a translation from a real person. NOTE: Google Translate does now translate into Latin, however, being a recent addition, it is very faulty and should not be trusted. Make a new request See also the archived requests page.

It seems to mean "in all manners of healing", to take it figuratively. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 16:34, 1 September 2012 (UTC) The term Ortstein relates to special types of soil pans in pedology. No English version of this page: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ortstein is currently available. I suspect the language will be technical. I would greatly appreciate it if one of your kind translators could have a go at translating it. Take a look at w:hardpan. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:46, 1 September 2012 (UTC) Also, Ortstein. —Stephen (Talk) 07:04, 2 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] sanskrit "to inhabit oneself" Hello, could I please get the sanskrit translation for the phrase, "to inhabit oneself" ? Thanks. I don't understand what it means. This is the best I can do: आत्मानम् निवसति —Stephen (Talk) 05:29, 3 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] Japanese to English please ファッションアイテムお祝いエウロパうぬぼれ！ I think it is: Europa Vanity Celebration fashion accessories! —Stephen (Talk) 05:42, 3 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] English to Irish (Gaelic) Can someone please translate the phrase "Let go, let god" I think it is: Lig dul. Lig Dia. —Stephen (Talk) 05:47, 3 September 2012 (UTC) That doesn't really make any sense in Irish. Slogans like this can't be translated literally. I'd go with something like "Lig díot é, lig do Dhia é" (lit. "Let it [go] from you; leave it to God"), but first I would find out if there are any Irish-language AA groups who may have already translated this slogan into idiomatic Irish. —Angr 20:20, 3 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] Japanese to Russian Is there any Russian version of sayonara? --Æ&Œ (talk) 17:07, 3 September 2012 (UTC) What do you mean? I would translate it into Russian as пока, but if you want transliteration, I reckon that'd be сайонара. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:13, 3 September 2012 (UTC) Funny request. BTW, саёнара and сайонара are both accepted by the Polivanov system (see w:Cyrillization of Japanese because of "ё"/"е" issue ("ё" is usually replaced with "е" in writing), even if this combination (йо) doesn't happen in native Russian words and seldom in borrowings (йод, йога), but is common in Japanese words, especially in names, like Тойота (instead of Тоёта). Also, пока is bye (casual) and до свидания (goodbye) and прощайте (farewell) are formal. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 00:18, 4 September 2012 (UTC) I think sayonara is pretty informal in non-Japanese settings in English. That's why I chose пока. As for the rest, that makes perfect sense. Thanks. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 01:15, 4 September 2012 (UTC) Yeah, no problem. I just wanted to clarify, anyway. I thought that sayonara in English is used in the sense of "farewell" and "goodbye", in which case прощайте (proščájte)/прощай (proščáj) matches more than the others, especially пока (poká), which is closer to "see you later", "bye". My name is spelled "Анатолий" in Russian, with letter й lost in translation. :) --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 01:51, 4 September 2012 (UTC) Dammit, that's how you can tell I've never seriously studied Russian! I've been corrected before by a Дмитрий, but I obviously did not learn my lesson. How can I tell when there is a final -j? --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 02:06, 4 September 2012 (UTC) I don't know, there are many noun patterns. It only becomes confusing when translated into English ("-ий" becomes "-y" or "-i", "-iy" is uncommon). Russian native singular nouns seldom end in и, if they do, they are borrowed, usually neuters, и is often used as a plural marker (again, there are a few plural forming patterns). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 02:38, 4 September 2012 (UTC) Women's given names often end in -а or -я (Анна, Елена), while men's names end in a consonant. Just remember that и is a vowel (in fact, -и in the nominative usually indicates a plural form), but й is a consonant. I can't think of any native Russian masculine name that ends in -и in the nominative singular. If the English transliteration ends in -i or -y, then the Russian masculine name almost certainly ends in -й. Of course, transliterated foreign names such as American names (Johnny, Larry, Gary) and Japanese names (Yamaguchi, Suzuki) will end in the vowel -и, but not so with native Russian masculine names. —Stephen (Talk) 02:52, 4 September 2012 (UTC) Yes, that's right. There are many exceptions, of course. Masculine petnames or diminutives can end in -а or -я: Петя, Алёша, Дима, Вова/Володя, etc. There are full names, which end in -а/-я: Данила, Никита, etc. If feminine names end in a consonant (but not consonant + ь - Любовь) , they become indeclinable. Also see Appendix:Russian given names. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 03:04, 4 September 2012 (UTC) Thank (both of) you so much! --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 03:09, 4 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] english to aramaic and iroquian please! please can you translate for me "thank you" or "thank you so much" in ancient aramaic and cherokee or iroquian (both w/ symbols)? thank you!! Aramaic: ܬܘܕܝ (tawdi) Cherokee: ᎠᎾᎵᎮᎵᎬ (analiheligv) —Stephen (Talk) 15:00, 5 September 2012 (UTC) thanks!!! Onondaga (an Iroquoian language): niya·węhaˀ (there should also be an acute accent on the ę, like the one on top of é, but I don't know how to type it) --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 04:18, 6 September 2012 (UTC) ę́ —Stephen (Talk) 04:39, 6 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] English to Khmer script Will someone please translate the words " Thug Life " for me into Khmer script, i want to get it tattooed on my body, please and thanks... ជីវិតចោរ (jiiwɨt jao) (you should get more opinions before tattooing) —Stephen (Talk) 03:47, 6 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] english to tagalog avid -masigasig adjacent -malapit adversity -paghihirap, problema apathy -pagkamanhid allure -pangaakit akin -kadugo antagonist -kontrabida achilles heel -kahinaan, o mahinang parte sa katawan adamant -sigurado,walang makakapigil ample -sapat anxiety -masyadong pagaalala blatant -bulgar sa masakit na paraan bogus -walang katotohanan, kalokohan, kasinungalinga ambiguous -hindi sigurado, malabo, boisterous -maingay contemporaries -mga kasamahan, kaibigan, mga nakakahalubilo curtail -pagputol, pagpaiksi contradict -pagtutol contempt -pakiramdam ng hindi kagustuhan colloquial -pagsasalaysay sa impormal na paraan commiserate -pagkaawa deprive -hindi pagbigay detain -paghinto dilemma -problema, suliranin decipher -pagdekowd decisive -malinaw at sigurado demented -may sira sa ulo, baliw essayist -taga sulat ng sanaysay elaboration -pagpapalawak euthanasia -madali at walang sakit na pagkamatay fallacy -kamalian frail -mahina fiasco -palpak na wala ng remedyo falsifier -manloloko insolent -walang galang, modo, at respeto irked -pagkairita intricate -mabusisi impassive -walang buhay impeccable -perpecto at walng bahid ng kamalian incognizant -walang alam kist -ataul loquacious -madaldal lame -mahina loath -muhi leery -kahinahinala loafer -walang ginagawa liaison -pakikiapid mediocre -pangkaraniwan mystified -lito meddle -pakikielam peril -delikado, kapahamakan posterity -susunod na henerasyon paramount -pangunahing importansya plead -pagmamakaawa reluctant -ayaw rivalry -kakumpitensya repose -pahinga renaissance -muling pagkabuhay redemption -pagkaligtas o kaligtasan skirmishes -mga maliliit na pagtatalo tidings -balita tenacity -tindi o lakas at pagkamabilis uphill -mahirap usher -ituro ang daan,papasukin ng maayos vigorous -puno ng buhay veracious -makatutohanan vindictive -mayroong gustong paghigantihan vanities -walang kwentang pang sariling kagustuhan na hindi nakabubuti [edit] english to gaelic how would i say stand by your brother in gaelic Irish Gaelic, Scottish Gaelic, or Manx Gaelic? —Angr 14:25, 9 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] English to Ancient Greek How would I translate "With or Without God" into ancient greek? Thanks! I would say: "Μετά Θεοῦ ἤ χωρίς Θεοῦ" (meta theou ē khōris theou). --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 00:57, 10 September 2012 (UTC) Your acute accents need to be grave since they're on the last syllable of a word followed by another stressed word: μετὰ Θεοῦ ἢ χωρὶς Θεοῦ. It would also be possible to use ἄνευ instead of χωρὶς. —Angr 09:06, 10 September 2012 (UTC) Ah, thank you. I have a lot of trouble with polytonic diacritics, so I checked the (isolate) dictionary spellings of the words I wanted before posting. I forgot about the whole "isolate" bit. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 20:58, 10 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] Please Help Please can you translate Grace Me Guide into Gaelic Many Thank Marissa What does "Grace Me Guide" mean?

I think it's अलेखि. —Angr 21:03, 10 September 2012 (UTC) [edit] Spanish to English Hi, I met a hot Spanish girl on holiday. She wrote me something, but I don't speak Spanish. What does she say? T'escric xk aixi, tot i que no ho vulguis hem recordanos, em veuros aqui. Gracies per estes magnifiques setmanes. Et trabaré molt a falter. M'agrades NAME PD Com se que també hem trabares a faltar (+0034) PHONE NUMBER It's Catalan. It has some misspellings that I can't figure out. I'm writing you xk well, although we do not want to be reminded, I would be here. Thanks for these wonderful weeks. And I'll miss you a lot. I like you NAME PS—How we have also missed (+0034) PHONE NUMBER —Stephen (Talk) 11:26, 11 September 2012 (UTC) Maybe "trabares"/"trabaré" are meant to be "trobares" or "trobaràs"/"trobaré" which mean "you found/met" or "you will find/meet"/"I will find/meet" from trobar (to find, to meet). BigDom (t • c) 12:06, 11 September 2012 (UTC) Is "miss/be missed" the only meaning of faltar? It seems odd for someone to say "I'll be greatly missed" and "how we have also missed [a phone number]". Could that also be a typo for something else? —Angr 12:59, 11 September 2012 (UTC) When people write casually, they make all manner of typos, misspellings, ad hoc abbreviations, and other things. There are clearly mistakes here, and probably some that I don't even notice. This is simply the best I can do with the text provided. Also, you can't rely on the punctuation. Just because there is no punctuation placed before the phone number, that does not mean that it should be as written. The phone number is probably not part of the sentence. —Stephen (Talk) 13:42, 11 September 2012 (UTC) trobar a faltar is an idiomatic expression in Catalan; "Et trobaré molt a faltar" means "I'll miss you a lot". Also, the combination of present tense of haver + infinitive is used as a substitute for the preterite tense, which is probably very strange if you're not familiar with it. —CodeCat 23:29, 13 September 2012 (UTC) It seems a linguistic experiment :) One possible correct way of writting it in Catalan would be "T'escric perquè així, tot i que no ho vulguis, hem de recordar-nos, en veure´ns aquí. Gràcies per aquestes magnífiques setmanes. Et trobaré molt a faltar. M'agrades. NAME. PD Com sé que també em trobarás a faltar: (...)" My free translation: "I'm writing to you because, you want or not, we have to remember each other, when we met here. Thanks for these wonderful weeks. I'll miss you a lot. I like you. NAME. PS—I know you'll also miss me, so [I give you my phone number] (...)". -"Estes" is the Valencian way for "aquestes", but the Valencian form for "així" is "ací". Strange mixture. "ací" is "aquí" (here). You see, I don't speak Valencian :S -"xk" is a SMS/IRC form for "perquè", as "bkoz" is for "because". Good luck ;D -Aleator (talk) 12:46, 31 October 2012 (UTC) [edit] Please translate the following statements into arabic, greek and acient aramaic My husband is my heart My husband is my heart, My soul is bound to his (thank you for your help Anatoli :-) I need "Rediscover the wonder of the present moment" translated into any language other than English.

I can, however, write the way I think a Māori would say it, which would be Wāriki De (IPA: [ˌwaː.ɾi.ki ˈdɛ]), but please bear in mind that your best bet is just to ask a Māori. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 23:55, 19 September 2012 (UTC) English names are generally assimilated into Maori while preserving its original spelling and pronunciation as most people who speak Maori are at least bilingual in Maori and English unlike Mandarin speakers. Therefore literal translation by sound would actually cause more problems than it solves.

Otherwise, the two pairs of translations are the same. The Arabic translation is كل يوم بيومه. The part that says "kull yawm bi-yawmi-h" or "kol youm be Youmouh" are not translations, they are just different ways that someone might try to write it in English letters. There are many other ways besides these. But the part in English letters is NOT the translation, the translation is the part in Arabic letters or Russian letters.

Currently defined as "to think someone deserves something, to derive satisfaction from someone else's success", but I think we can do better. :-)   (Previously defined as "to grant, indulge", but an anon changed it, with the edit summary "To grant or to indulge don't even come close to the true meaning of this verb so I've tried my best to describe it as accurately and briefly as I can"). —RuakhTALK 12:16, 10 October 2012 (UTC) It is tricky because it works sort of backwards from English. Ik gun je dit = I think you deserve this. So it doesn't simply mean deserve. Or: hij gunt je geen ogenblik rust = he thinks you deserve not a moment's rest. —Stephen (Talk) 04:33, 11 October 2012 (UTC) It is indeed pretty hard to translate to English. As another example, in the sentence "het is hem niet gegund", gunnen (here in past participle form) makes it mean something like "for him, it is not meant to be". Thayts (talk) 19:32, 11 October 2012 (UTC) Or literally, "it is to him not thought deserved". —Stephen (Talk) 21:42, 11 October 2012 (UTC) I think that is closest. Gunnen means to think someone should have something. It is often used to explain the difference between envy and jealousy. —CodeCat 21:59, 11 October 2012 (UTC) [edit] English to Japanese God is Love.

There is also a song called so. Use です (desu) as a statement in a polite speech, である (dearu) in informative and だ (da) in plain styles.

All three phrases have the same first and last words, the only change is the middle word. Thank you in advance. 'The strong one' I have seen on some websites that 'kanunu' means both this phrase and 'uncle'. So I'm unclear on that. 'The fast one' or 'The quick one' 'The clever one' These are for a story where Superboy from DC comics (who has lived in Hawaii) is telling his friends Robin and Impulse what they would be called in the Hawaiian language. He is called by the locals 'The strong one'. kanunu means the physically large one; the tall and stout one; the husky one. It doesn't mean uncle, but someone might nickname his uncle kanunu. ikaika (another word for the strong one, this one means strong, powerful, sturdy, stalwart, potent, force, energy, might) koke, ulele (there are many words for fast, these are just two of them) akamai (one of several words for clever) —Stephen (Talk) 21:45, 13 October 2012 (UTC) Thank you Stephen for answering my questions. :D Though how would I directly translate the words you provided into the phrases? Would it be like this- The strong one = Ka ikaika haki The fast one = Ka koke/ulele haki The clever one = Ka akamai haki I'm much better at Spanish, French and Irish Gaelic. :D It depends on how you're going to use them. If they are to be sobriquets, then I don't think you need ka. What is this "haki"? Are you thinking of kahi? You wouldn't use that. When you need the definite article, it is ke kanunu (the husky, strong) ka ikaika (the strong) ke koke, ka ulele (the fast, quick) ke akamai (the clever) —Stephen (Talk) 22:38, 13 October 2012 (UTC) Thanks again. :D And that makes sense I guess. I know some languages do that where a word is implied by the others. Also I found haki at this dictionary page it is the fourth down. http://www.freelang.net/online/hawaiian.php?lg=gb I try to do as much research as I can, even if it's only a little short story. My best friend/editor say's I go overboard on researching.

The most common were 。 and 、, used by scholars. Poetry just used spaces and paragraphs. 、 is a pause mark, not for listing. You can try asking User:Jamesjiao for more details. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 12:09, 31 October 2012 (UTC) In the time of Laozi, there would not have been punctuation. It probably would have been written in two columns, the columns serving to separate the sentences. —Stephen (Talk) 12:16, 31 October 2012 (UTC) Stephen's got it. I am not a scholar on historical Chinese, but I can safely say I rarely see any form of punctuations used in ancient texts.

Wreck-It Ralph Vanellope von Schweetz Fix-It Felix, Jr. Sergeant Tamora Jean Calhoun King Candy Much thanks in advance! Wreck-it Ralph = Malkreanta-ĝin Ralf Vanellope von Schweetz = Vanélopi von Ŝǔic Fix-It Felix = Fiksanta-ĝin Filiks Tamora Jean Calhoun = Tamora Ĝin Kalhún King Candy = Reĝo Dolĉaĵo I have followed Zamenhof, the creator of Esperanto, in transliterating names by putting an accent on the stressed syllable if the stress is not penultimate, and otherwise leaving the names as untouched as possible. The names that are titles ("wreck-it" etc.) I have translated. Please note that I have not seen the movie and I am just guessing the pronunciation of the characters' names based on experience. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 05:58, 13 November 2012 (UTC) Thank you! And now, I can start to learn Esperanto and then talk about these characters in Esperanto. I have two questions though. Would Sergeant translate into Serĝento? And, would Jr. translate into Junulo? -173.60.112.12 03:29, 25 November 2012 (UTC) Well, I speak Latin but my Esperanto is somewhat weak. I can understand a lot more than I can write. Given this, I asked an Esperantist to check my translations a few days ago, and he disagreed with them. For one, we confirmed that King Candy appears to be made of candy in the movie by asking a friend, and that lets us conclude that the awkward noun cluster I gave you would be better expressed as Reĝo Dolĉaĵa. Secondly, he confirmed that modern Esperantists do not usually transliterate names or use stress accents — they either leave them alone (like saying "Calhoun") or occasionally fully Esperantize them (like saying "Kalhuno"). Thirdly, he showed that it would be more usual to use the verb destrui rather than the synonymous but rarer malkrei, so Wreck-it would be Destruanta-ĝin. I think something like Sarĝento and junula (as an adjective) would work well. If you are interested in learning Esperanto or just asking more questions, I would strongly recommend that you try out Lernu! where Esperantists of all levels discuss la lingvo. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 03:49, 25 November 2012 (UTC) [edit] English to Sanskrit What are the romanized Sanskrit words for: protector, apprentice, knight, elder and master? protector = pālaka apprentice = śikṣu knight = ḍāmara elder = sthavira master = nātha —Stephen (Talk) 21:01, 17 November 2012 (UTC) [edit] English to Scottish Gaelic Can somebody please translate the following into Scottish Gaelic for me; "Never mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness with weakness."

The verb hören means both "to hear" and "to listen". Without an object, zuhören is clearer, e.g. Hören Sie zu, bitte! - Please listen! --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:01, 3 December 2012 (UTC) [edit] latin translation translate never lose your dignity or integrity into latin Noli amittere tuam dignitatem.

Is the hypernym parameter optional? If not, could anyone translate "state of India" in these languages? For the Armenian language, I think it's նահանգ Հնդկաստանի; for Hungarian, I think it's állam India. I'm not sure about Bengali. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 09:25, 2 December 2012 (UTC) I don't know much about Hungarian, but reading what I can of w:hu:Állam makes it seem like they mean nation-state, not a state within a nation.

Rather than inflecting the possessor, India, it would inflect that which is possessed by India: "India its-state" (India állama). OTOH, you could say "indian state" (indiai állam), which is much more common in this case. —Stephen (Talk) 08:26, 3 December 2012 (UTC) [edit] Twin in Nepali Could someone help me to translate twin into Nepali?

[edit] request for english to aramaic hi there i am requesting a translation of "four seasons forgotten" in aramaic thank you [edit] Amharic, Czech, Hebrew, Ukrainian(?) Russian to English The album - I got some pretty cool foreign language books from volunteering at a local library and I'm curious about the title of this Amharic book (just so I know what it's about), the note in this Czech book apparently titled November Hurricane by Bohumil Hrabal, what's on the cover of this Hebrew fashion book, and the note in this Ukrainian(?) book, Преподобный Серафимъ Саровскїй. Ultimateria (talk) 04:46, 17 December 2012 (UTC) The note is not Ukrainian, it's Russian. "Преподобный Серафимъ Саровскїй" is pre-1918 reform spelling of "Преподо́бный Серафи́м Саро́вский" (the Reverend Serafim Sarovsky) (I've marked the word stresses). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:12, 17 December 2012 (UTC) Oh, that's odd. It says it was published in 1971, but there are also many instances of the letter yat. Any ideas of why it still uses old spellings? Also, can you read the note? Ultimateria (talk) 05:40, 17 December 2012 (UTC) I don't know where the Russian title appears on the link. I only translated what you posted. As for the note, it's cursive in red ink, rght? It says: "1972 г. Моему любимому мальчику на память от мамы." - "(Year) 1972. To my dear boy for memory from mum." --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:49, 17 December 2012 (UTC) Thank you so much, Anatoli! Ultimateria (talk) 17:04, 17 December 2012 (UTC) The other, long note is written in Czech, please ask Dan Polansky. I can't read cursive Czech and he is a native speaker. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:52, 17 December 2012 (UTC) The Hebrew at the top is הסיפורים המותחים ביותר בעולם (hasipurím hamot'khím b'yotér ba'olám) which means "The most thrilling/suspensful tales in the world" at the bottom, it is the three words מְרַתֵּק (m'raték, "fascinating"), מַפְתִּיעַ (maftía', "surprising"), מַדְהִים (madhím, "amazing"). --WikiTiki89 06:36, 17 December 2012 (UTC) Very interesting! I could have sworn it had something to do with fashion/glamour because of the woman's over-the-top makeup and the layout of the words. Thank you! Ultimateria (talk) 17:04, 17 December 2012 (UTC) Disclaimer: I do not know a word of Amharic. The text looks like "የዳበሳ ጉዞ ከፈቃደ ልመንህ" (transliteration: "yädabäsa guzo käfäqadä ləmänəhə") to me. Hope this helps, πr2 (talk • changes) 15:30, 17 December 2012 (UTC) Some quick research showed me the second word ጉዞ means journey, so thank you for transcribing the words for me! Ultimateria (talk) 17:04, 17 December 2012 (UTC) According to a native speaker of Amharic, the Amharic text can be translated literally as "[walking blindly] by Feqade Limenih" or "Aimless wanderings by Feqade Limenih". I guess "wanderings" / "walking" isn't far from what "journey" (I personally found a website which said it meant "tourism", which is relatively similar as well) and the "käfäqadä ləmänəhə" part must mean that it is by Feqade Limenih, so I have been able to track the book down to http://www.worldcat.org/title/yedabesa-guzo/oclc/51325005 (ISBN 0973091509)! Apparently the name of the book is "Yedabesa guzo" which is pretty close to my transliteration "yädabäsa guzo". ;) πr2 (talk • changes) 01:09, 18 December 2012 (UTC) Oh wow, you really went out of your way.

Ultimateria (talk) 18:06, 18 December 2012 (UTC) [edit] Latin to English from deviantART I came across the phrase "Tempora fugit" at this deviantART page; and I'm assuming it means "times fly". Is that true or does it mean something else? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 03:44, 20 December 2012 (UTC) More like "times, it flies". The subject is plural, the verb singular, and the whole ungrammatical. If the only change desired were to put the subject into the plural, it should be tempora fugiunt", "the times fly"... but I don't know how that makes much sense. I suspect simple confusion between Cicero's o tempora, o mores! "Oh times, oh morals!" and Virgil's (paraphrased) tempus fugit "time flies". Catsidhe (talk) 04:32, 20 December 2012 (UTC) Thanks, I notified the creator, Kamikaye. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 04:40, 20 December 2012 (UTC) By the way, Catsidhe. You can translate one of Aung San Suu Kyi's quotes into Latin if you want: "It is not power that corrupts but fear." --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 05:32, 20 December 2012 (UTC) @Catsidhe: yes, it's ungrammatical, but there's a problem with your translation, too. fugio does not mean "fly" in the modern sense; that's volo. Instead, it means "flee" or "run away". @LX: The quote is: Non potestas sed timor corrumpit. (Literally: Not power, but fear, corrupts. The grammar of the original does not suit Latin.) —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 05:38, 20 December 2012 (UTC) "Time flies" is the canonical translation, in the archaic sense of "fly" = "flee". (fly etymology 2, verb sense 2.) It is also the only way the joke "Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana" can work. (With three shifts of meaning for "flies" in one sentence, if you think about it.) On a tangential note, is there a way to link to a given etymology of a lemma, as there is to a given language for it? Catsidhe (talk) 05:55, 20 December 2012 (UTC) Damn canonicity! With the possible exception of "Fly, Fleance, fly!" which I seem to remember from Macbeth, fly is but rarely heard with that meaning from modern lips. To translate for the likes of a 17th-century Englishman is not going to convey meaning accurately. But don't mind me, I'm just grouchy. As for your other question, do you mean like volo#Etymology 2 or something like that? if so, that's the only way I know of. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 06:01, 20 December 2012 (UTC) Isn't this a modern use of that sense: "I can't talk right now. I gotta fly!" --WikiTiki89 07:03, 20 December 2012 (UTC) @Catsidhe and Metaknowledge: you could also create an anchor (which won't change if e.g. another language is put in before volo#Latin that also has two etymology sections), either by inserting <span id="Latin_etymology_2"></span> and linking to volo#Latin_etymology_2 (as I did on WT:ANDS), or by something similar to {{senseid}}. That's if you need to link from one entry to another; I don't think it's worth it to put such an anchor in just to link to an entry from a discussion. - -sche (discuss) 07:21, 20 December 2012 (UTC) [edit] English to Khmer Can someone please tell me how to write HOPE in Khmer?

I was websearching for something to back that up, and I found this, which explains quite nicely why it works with the implied "natus" (note: it uses the typographic variant "maior"). —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 06:27, 9 January 2013 (UTC) It does seem that father and son with the same tria nomina were typically disambiguated as maior and minor, so I'll happily concede that.

Using j's in Latin is so 19th century. —Angr 20:12, 9 January 2013 (UTC) It's an ingrained habit, and spellings like ivdex will forever seem foreign to me. Come to think of it, I believe I was trained on 19th-c. and early 20th-c. materials, so perhaps it ought not to come as a surprise. Latin education has always been a little, er, conservative. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 20:16, 9 January 2013 (UTC) Ivdex is indeed weird, but iudex isn't (to me at least). I like the Latin Classical Dictionary's habit of always using u in lowercase and V in uppercase, so we can speak of uinum in Vmbria. —Angr 21:47, 9 January 2013 (UTC) I prefer the positional variation where v is initial and u medial and final, regardless of the phonetic value. (In minuscule case, anyway. Caps form is V for both.) Thus vinum in Vmbria, veni vidi vici, vlulauit, VENVS; and in an example from English, Francis Bacon's Wisedom of the Ancients, features the phrase "vast void vniuerse".

Not exactly "march", but I think this is the closest Latin equivalent. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 08:40, 14 January 2013 (UTC) Daemones soli incedunt seems to be more appropriate for the sense of a military massed walk. Catsidhe (verba, facta) 09:00, 14 January 2013 (UTC) I don't think it's any improvement, pretty synonymous for that sense TBH. See the cites provided in the respective Lewis & Short entries. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 09:10, 14 January 2013 (UTC) That's where I looked it up. Advento and incedo also have explicit military senses. Incedo particularly has "I. B. In partic., in milit. lang., to move forwards, advance, march", and the quote "tenero et molli ingressu suspendimus gradum: non ambulamus, sed incedimus," that last I read as "we do not walk, we march," Ambulo seems to read primarily as 'to walk', where any military sense is in the same sort of sense as 'going for a walk' meaning to go on patrol. That's how I read it, anyway. Catsidhe (verba, facta) 09:33, 14 January 2013 (UTC) I interpreted the quote as juxtaposing the concept of just marching around aimlessly (as one would in training exercises) with the concept of marching to a specific destination (which would mean that actual fighting would ensue). I have no context about the demons, so I can't tell which they're engaged in. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 16:06, 14 January 2013 (UTC) [edit] latin? translation can someone give me an an accurate translation for the following: Vive Affectu thanks! vive affectu ~ "Live the emotion". – Catsidhe (verba, facta) 01:13, 15 January 2013 (UTC) [edit] English to Sanskrit I would like to translate the phrase "Leap and the net will appear" translated in to Sanskrit with Devanāgarī script as well as a Roman transliteration of the pronunciation.

Do "What do you think?" and "What say you?" mean the same thing in English, provided that What say you? is normal English. Can someone translate both to Latin, please? Thank you :) 37.251.110.142 13:33, 27 January 2013 (UTC) Yes, I would say the two phrases are synonymous. When one says "What say you?" (which incidentally is not exactly "normal English", or at least not modern) one does not actually mean "What are you saying?" but instead asking for an opinion. I cannot think of a good Classical way to say this, so I'll just go with my gut instinct on this one: Quid cogitas?. (Maybe it would be clearer just to avoid any idiomaticity and say Quam opinionem habes? — "What opinion do you have?".) —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 15:30, 27 January 2013 (UTC) I wouldn't use cogito for this meaning of "think". How about Quid putas? for "What do you think?" and Quid dicis? for "What say you?" I think in context it would be clear that Quid dicis? is also really asking for an opinion. If two or more people are being addressed, then it's Quid putatis? and Quid dicitis?. —Angr 16:35, 27 January 2013 (UTC) Yeah, puto does sound better with an object like in this situation. The thing is, if I saw Quid dicis? I would translate it as "What are you saying?", as if I was hard of hearing or thought it was nonsense. "What say you" really expands to "What would you say were you to be asked?" IMO. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 18:13, 27 January 2013 (UTC) As I said, I think it depends on context. If someone made a suggestion to me and then said Quid dicis? at the end, after he had been talking, it would be pretty clear he meant "What do you say [about that]?" and not "What are you saying?" since I hadn't been saying anything at all. —Angr 18:24, 27 January 2013 (UTC) I disagree that "What say you?" means the same thing as "What do you think?". "What say you?" is an archaic (and somewhat fossilized today) way saying "What do you say?" and means the exact same thing (which is different from "What are you saying?"). This is similar to, but not exactly the same thing as, saying "What do you think?", because it does stress the saying over the thinking. --WikiTiki89 18:58, 27 January 2013 (UTC) Thank you all! 94.211.61.178 16:35, 30 January 2013 (UTC) [edit] Can someone translate "every rose has its thorn" into Khmer Can someone translate "Every rose has its thorn" into khmer? ពាក្យពិតនិងផ្កាកុលាបតែងប្រកបទៅដោយបន្លា (piek pɨt nɨng pkaa ko'laap taeng prɑkɑɑp tɨv daoy bɑnlaa) If that's too long, then: ពាក្យពិត រែងស្លែង ។ (piek pɨt rɛɛng slaeng) —Stephen (Talk) 04:55, 29 January 2013 (UTC) [edit] French to Spanish lendemain. --Æ&Œ (talk) 07:15, 28 January 2013 (UTC) [edit] Japanese word or phrase There is a Japanese word or phrase that puts the following words into a host's mouth: "Good night.

This is from the shop I work in. Links to the characters would be appreciated, as I cannot type in Chinese characters. Mglovesfun (talk) 19:36, 28 January 2013 (UTC) On the right: 天下大将軍, or "Generalissimo Under Heaven" (i.e. of all the world). The "under heaven" part might suggest "imperial". On the left: 地下女将軍, though the third character could be something else. This'd parse out to "Woman General Underground", which is certainly kinda odd. If I had to guess, I'd say the figure on the left is a joke making fun of the figure on the right, what with the odd text and the rouge circles. Probably with some political subtext for which I don't have the context. Also, I think these are Korean, judging from the headwear and the way these resemble what I think are called "spirit poles" (but for which I can find nothing in Wikipedia at the moment). -- Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 20:06, 28 January 2013 (UTC) Probably 將軍 instead of 将軍. The figures are the male (right) and female (left) generalissimos. Chief commanders are usually men, so the male one is "commander under heaven (i.e. of the world, All under Heaven)", while the female one is "female commander under earth/ground (i.e. of the underworld)" (天 ("sky, heaven") and 地 ("earth, ground") are antonyms). These are typically Korean: 天下大將軍,地下女將軍(천하대장군,지하여장군), commonly texts on jangseungs (장승). Google search gives more pictures with these texts. 129.78.32.21 05:18, 29 January 2013 (UTC) Thanks, 129! Do these traditionally come in pairs like this?

I don't speak Latin, so I can't tell for sure, but I think Stephen has a correct translation of the meaning? 94.211.55.161 07:49, 21 February 2013 (UTC) Maybe being a bit more literal? et pulchritudo et foeditas arbitrarii sunt "Both beauty and ugliness are arbitrary".

Also what would be helpful is the burmese script for 'Kengtung'. These aren't Burmese names, so it's a little hard to know what to do with them. For one thing, in Burmese /aɪ/ is always followed by /ɴ/ or /ʔ/, so there's no way to write "-rai" that isn't followed by anything. But English loanwords like "pie" and "tie" become /pàɪɴ/ and /tàɪɴ/, so I'll do that here: my best guess for "Mangrai" is မန်ရိုင် (/mànɹàɪɴ/ or manraing), and for "Kengtung" it's ကိန်တွန် (/kèɪntʊ̀ɴ/ or keintun). —Angr 20:31, 21 February 2013 (UTC) Addendum: from w:Kengtung I see that it has its own Burmese name, which is ကျိုင်းတုံ (/tɕáintòʊɴ/ or Kyaington). Kengtung (ၵဵင်းတုင်) is the Shan name, but Shan uses the Burmese script too, so maybe that's more what you're looking for. —Angr 20:35, 21 February 2013 (UTC) Also a disclaimer regarding Mangrai: my transliteration is based solely on the pronunciation and is my own invention. It's entirely possible that Mangrai has a conventional name in Burmese and/or Shan, but I don't know what it is. (Burmese Wikipedia doesn't have an article on him, and the Shan test Wikipedia doesn't seem to either.) —Angr 20:42, 21 February 2013 (UTC) Maybe you can get a better idea from the Thai spelling: มังราย (mang raay) (IPA: maŋ.raːj). —Stephen (Talk) 09:37, 22 February 2013 (UTC) If I put that one-to-one into Burmese spelling it comes out မင်ရာယ် but I'm not sure how that would be pronounced since Burmese doesn't usually use ာယ် as a syllable rhyme.
