If you would like to have a word or even a whole sentence translated, this is the right place for your request. 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.

English to Latin[edit]
Love her. The context of this is a mariner or seafarer telling or commanding someone to love their sailing boat. The passage reads:
"Take care of your boat now. Love her. She'll be more than a home. She'll be your friend."
Many thanks, Martyn
- Do you want the entire passage? Just that phrase is Eam ama. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 18:07, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
Homework Document Translation English to Scottish Gaelic[edit]
My daughter had to do a project on a family member who migrated to New Zealand, the only person we had information for was my grandmother whose main language is Scottish Gaelic. She has to do an oral presentation in that person's character. Pleas help translate the information below:
My name is Catherine MacRae, people usually call me Kate. My maiden name was MacKinnon.
I travelled alone and left the Isle of Skye on the ferry to mainland Scotland where I stayed with a friend for a few nights. Then I travelled on the overnight train to England arriving in time to embark on the Shaw Savill and Albion Co., Limited steamship 'Tainui'. This left Southhampton England, on 9 September 1920, stopped in Auckland and continued to Wellington where I arrived on the 31 0ctober 1920, the voyage took 59 days, which is 8 weeks and three days. Most days the sea was calm but somedays I was reminded of the ferry trips to the mainland of Scotland which could be very rough. Calm to me was enough for others to call it rough, when I thought it was rough others on the ship were thinking that staying in England may have been a good idea.
Most of my companions on the voyage were single females the youngest being 19 years of age, the eldest was a housekeeper in her forties. There was a married woman travelling with her infant son to join her husband in New Zealand. Thirty three of my companions were from England, one from Wales, another from Ireland. With nine of us from Scotland. The time on the ship allowed me to improve my English, as my main language is Gaelic.
Before The Great War I was engaged to the boy next door. When War was declared, he and the other young men of the community enlisted in the war, leaving the less able members of the family to continue on the crofts, or fishing in the north sea, which they did admirable. After the War the returned servicemen were offered the opportunity to go to New Zealand and settle there. The Government offered them assisted passage; the government gave them money towards their cost of travel. My fiancé accepted this offer and travelled to the other side of the world. Once he was settled and had a job he wrote and let me know, so that I could start making arrangements, he sent me money to help with my fare and once I had enough I finalised my travel details, so that I could join him and get married. It was scary leaving everything and everyone I knew in Scotland, especially my two older sisters, five younger brothers and a younger sister. It was also exciting to travel around the world to start a new life, and get married.
My fiancé worked on the wharfs in Wellington, so that is where I came to when I arrived in New Zealand. He had arranged accommodation for me until we could get married. Once we were married we brought a house on the hill in Johnsonville. Two years late we had our first child.
The hardest part was not many people spoke the language that I had grown up with, which was Gaelic. My husband and I helped start the Gaelic Association of Wellington. As there were a number of people from Scotland we still had the Traditional Hogmanay celebration each New Year with First Footers and ensuring the table was full of food. I make the traditional shortbread recipe that we used at home. Most of my spare time is spent knitting. We continue to celebrate Burns night with the piping in of the Haggis, Ode to the Haggis and a recital of one of his poems by each household in attendance.
What I missed the most was the large community gathering each week as I was one of nine children and my husband was one of fourteen. The lack of Gaelic language in everyday life was strange and not always having someone to talk to made me feel lonely often. Life in New Zealand was not as harsh as it was on Skye. There we walked everywhere, things took a lot longer at home, and the winters without being snowbound for days on end was wonderful. Late I had two brothers that came to live in New Zealand, and one settled in Australia.

- Yes, though remembering what I said above about the Romans being literal-minded, it's likely they would consider this sentence rather disgusting (and reminiscent of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom), and impossible to be uttered by a living person. —Angr 20:01, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- This reminds me of how The Klingon Dictionary advises that the verb meaning "to be afraid" is rarely used in the first person. Some things may be possible to translate correctly, but remain culturally incorrect. Luckily, Latin is not the sole domain of the Romans, as tlhIngan Hol is to the Klingons. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 22:58, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

Unspecified language[edit]
Italic textRecently the Air Force refined its understanding of the core duties and responsibilities it performs as a Military Service Branch, streamlining what previously were six distinctive capabilities and seventeen operational functions into twelve core functions to be used across the doctrine, organization, training, equipment, leadership, and education, personnel, and facilities spectrum. These core functions express the ways in which the Air Force is particularly and appropriately suited to contribute to national security, but they do not necessarily express every aspect of what the Air Force contributes to the nation. It should be emphasized that the core functions, by themselves, are not doctrinal constructs.[9] [edit] Nuclear Deterrence Operations The purpose of Nuclear Deterrence Operations (NDO) is to operate, maintain, and secure nuclear forces to achieve an assured capability to deter an adversary from taking action against vital US interests. In the event deterrence fails, the US should be able to appropriately respond with nuclear options. The sub-elements of this function are:[9] Assure/Dissuade/Deter is a mission set derived from the Air Force's readiness to carry out the nuclear strike operations mission as well as from specific actions taken to assure allies as a part of extended deterrence. Dissuading others from acquiring or proliferating WMD, and the means to deliver them, contributes to promoting security and is also an integral part of this mission. Moreover, different deterrence strategies are required to deter various adversaries, whether they are a nation state, or non-state/transnational actor. The Air Force maintains and presents credible deterrent capabilities through successful visible demonstrations and exercises which assure allies, dissuade proliferation, deter potential adversaries from actions that threaten US national security or the populations and deployed military forces of the US, its allies and friends.[9] Nuclear strike is the ability of nuclear forces to rapidly and accurately strike targets which the enemy holds dear in a devastating manner. If a crisis occurs, rapid generation and, if necessary, deployment of nuclear strike capabilities will demonstrate US resolve and may prompt an adversary to alter the course of action deemed threatening to our national interest. Should deterrence fail, the President may authorize a precise, tailored response to terminate the conflict at the lowest possible level and lead to a rapid cessation of hostilities. Post-conflict, regeneration of a credible nuclear deterrent capability will deter further aggression. The Air Force may present a credible force posture in either the continental US, within a theater of operations, or both to effectively deter the range of potential adversaries envisioned in the 21st century. This requires the ability to engage targets globally using a variety of methods; therefore, the Air Force should possess the ability to induct, train, assign, educate and exercise individuals and units to rapidly and effectively execute missions that support US NDO objectives. Finally, the Air Force regularly exercises and evaluates all aspects of nuclear operations to ensure high levels of performance.[9] Nuclear surety ensures the safety, security and effectiveness of nuclear operations. Because of their political and military importance, destructive power, and the potential consequences of an accident or unauthorized act, nuclear weapons and nuclear weapon systems require special consideration and protection against risks and threats inherent in their peacetime and wartime environments. The Air Force, in conjunction with other entities within the Departments of Defense or Energy, achieves a high standard of protection through a stringent nuclear surety program. This program applies to materiel, personnel, and procedures that contribute to the safety, security, and control of nuclear weapons, thus assuring no nuclear accidents, incidents, loss, or unauthorized or accidental use (a Broken Arrow incident). The Air Force continues to pursue safe, secure and effective nuclear weapons consistent with operational requirements. Adversaries, allies, and the American people must be highly confident of the Air Force's ability to secure nuclear weapons from accidents, theft, loss, and accidental or unauthorized use. This day-to-day commitment to precise and reliable nuclear operations is the cornerstone of the credibility of the NDO mission.

- Actually, importantia doesn't seem to be a Classical Latin word. The usual way of saying "X is important to me" is "X meā refert" (meā always in the feminine ablative singular, maybe something like mente is understood?) so maybe Res non referunt mea nisi volo would be better. —Angr 17:13, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

can i have an english to latin translation for this text please. have looked around and keep getting different responses[edit]
in need of a translation for a tattoo design. by the nature of the translations purpose it has to be right seeing as its gonna be with me for the rest of my life.
the phrase im looking for is "bury me in a shallow grave"
ive had multiple outcomes looking and reading latin texts. the most common so far is, "sepelite me in vada gravi" although im pretty sure that these are the right words but with the wrong meanings. e.g. i think the gravis is grave as in serious more the burial place/ tomb. and the shallow term i think is in reference to a ford and not a description of depth.
the translation ive tried piecing together myself is... "humo me in vadosus tombus"... can anyone tell me if thats correct or even go the whole hog and tell me exactly what im looking for?
- The sepelite me part is right if you're addressing this to more than one person (it's sepeli me if you're addressing just one person), but "in a shallow grave" should be in sepulcro humili. —Angr 18:55, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

How does one say 'long live Romance!' in any language? (I am especially interested in seeing Romance translations). --66.190.69.246 02:45, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- Portuguese: "Vida longa ao romanço!" — Ungoliant (Falai) 03:21, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- Instead of "Vida longa ao", you can also use "viva o," "Deus salve o" or for an informal translation "vai". Instead of "romanço" you can use "romance" (though this is more likely to be interpreted as emotional romance, instead of Romance languages), "línguas romances" or "línguas neolatinas." — Ungoliant (Falai) 14:58, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- French: Vive la romance !
- Italian: Viva il romanticismo!
- Spanish: ¡Qué viva el romance! (Assuming you mean romance, or ardent emotional attachment between people. If you meant "Romance languages", then it would be something else.) —Stephen (Talk) 08:59, 12 May 2013 (UTC) LARGA VIDA AL ROMANCE! -> LITERAL MEANING

- I think in French, « vivent les langues latines ! » is the best (langue romaine is another possibility). Mglovesfun (talk) 15:02, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, or , we could have « Longue vie aux langues romanes ! » --Jerome Potts (talk) 21:38, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
- Just to mix things up a bit, in German it's Lang leben die romanischen Sprachen!. —Angr 18:29, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- Dutch: "Lang leven de Romaanse talen!" - Catalan: "Que visquin les llengües romàniques!" - Swedish: "Länga leve de romanska språken!" - Slovene: "Naj živijo romanski jeziki!" - Finnish (I think): "Kauan eläkööt romaaniset kielet!" —CodeCat 18:31, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
-
- If Romance is in the sense of "Romance languages", then
- Russian: да здра́вствуют рома́нские языки́ (da zdrávstvujut románskije jazykí). Letter "j" is "y" as in "yes" and the first "v" in "zdrávstvujut" is silent.

One Team, One Vision
... many thanks for your help.
- Unus manipulus, visio una, I guess, though I'm not sure if visio can be used metaphorically like that. Maybe Unus manipulus, scopus unus, which means "One team, one goal/target", which might make a nice pun depending on what your team plays. —Angr 17:22, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
That's brilliant ... and a perfect pun for my son's football team! Many thanks for your help.

- Do you really want the responsibility for the accuracy of the inscription on the engagement ring to lie with some anonymous person on the Internet? If you don't know a native Gaelic speaker personally whom you can trust to get it right, get it inscribed in English, or find some pre-existing Gaelic motto you like.

Looking For Your Face
From the beginning of my life I have been looking for your face but today I have seen it
Today I have seen the charm, the beauty, the unfathomable grace of the face that I was looking for
Today I have found you and those who laughed and scorned me yesterday are sorry that they were not looking as I did
I am bewildered by the magnificence of your beauty and wish to see you with a hundred eyes
My heart has burned with passion and has searched forever for this wondrous beauty that I now behold
I am ashamed to call this love human and afraid of God to call it divine
Your fragrant breath like the morning breeze has come to the stillness of the garden You have breathed new life into me I have become your sunshine and also your shadow
My soul is screaming in ecstasy Every fiber of my being is in love with you
Your effulgence has lit a fire in my heart for me the earth and sky
My arrow of love has arrived at the target I am in the house of mercy and my heart is a place of prayer

The fox replies after tasting it – "too sweet, I've had much, I might faint."
The goat says- "let me taste it." The goat puts its hand down to taste the water, but the clever fox pulls him down and uses him as a ladder to get out. The fox says – "thanks for your help!"and goes away. The goat is stuck in the well and recollects what his mother had told him – " be careful of how you take the advice from people you don't know."

Help on translating Japanese to English[edit]
I've tried translating this sentence by myself it keeps coming out: "This song is full of secrets," but it doesn't actually say that. Can somebody help me with this, here's the original text: "この曲には、秘密の言葉が溢れているのよ。"
- I think "この曲には、秘密の言葉が溢れているのよ" (kono kyoku ni wa, himitsu no kotoba ga afurete iru no yo) means "the secret words are left out of this song(, you know)", said in a conversational, casual style. I repeated the phrase, so that you could look up the main words, leaving out grammatical forms and particles. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 00:33, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
- Your original translation was very close, striking my previous translation. It means "this song is full (overflowing with) secret words(, you know)". 溢れる also means "miss out", "fail", that's why I got mixed up initially. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 00:38, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

Quote from Laxdæla saga[edit]
I'm looking for a translation from English to old Norse more specifically the language around the 13 the century. It is a phrase or proverb from the writing The Laxdaela Saga. If the original translation from this story is correct it is "A hungry wolf is bound to wage a hard battle". It is supposed to be somewhere in or around chapter 19. I'm looking to translate it back to its original written language which is either some form of Norse or an early form of proto germanic
- So you're not so much looking for a translation as the original quote, right? The text of the Laxdæla saga can be found here; the only passage in chapter 19 with a wolf that I can find is Nú þætti oss hitt ráðlegra að þú byðir Hrúti bróður þínum sæmilega því að þar er fangs von af frekum úlfi, which is translated here as "Now this seems to me the wiser counsel: to make your brother an honourable offer, for there a hard grip from greedy wolf may be looked for". Is that what you're looking for? —Angr 13:48, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
- That's in modern Icelandic rather than Old Norse but the ON version will be very similar. BigDom (t • c) 17:44, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
- It is! How annoying. I wonder if there's anywhere on the net that provides the original ON text. If so, the External links section at Laxdæla saga doesn't include it. —Angr 19:42, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
- I found this which seems to be in Old Norse. The corresponding text for the excerpt above is: Nú þœtti oss hitt ráðligra, at þú byðir Hrúti broður þínum sœmiliga, því at þar er fangs ván af frekum úlfi and the notes at the bottom (in German) explain that the proverb means that one should expect a hungry wolf to attack, i.e. expect an irritated/annoyed adversary to put up a fight. Hope this helps, BigDom (t • c) 09:59, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
- Great find! I hope the OP comes back and finds this! —Angr 10:11, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

English to Scottish Gaelic[edit]
Lay down your head, and I'll sing you a lullaby Back to the years of loo-li lai-lay; And I'll sing you to sleep, and I'll sing you tomorrow Bless you with love, for the road that you go.
May you sail far to the far fields of fortune With diamonds and pearls at your head and your feet And may you need never to banish misfortune May you find kindness in all that you meet
May there always be angels to watch over you To guide you each step of the way To guard you and keep you safe from all harm Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
May you bring love and may you bring happiness Be loved in return to the end of your days Now fall off to sleep, I'm not meaning to keep you I'll just sit for a while and sing loo-li, lai-lay
May there always be angels to watch over you To guide you each step of the way To guard you and keep you safe from all harm Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay, loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay

I need " Proud to be Khmer" in Khmer transcript I also need "No pressure, no diamonds" in Khmer Thanks much!
- Doublecheck them, please:
- Proud to be Khmer = មោទនភាពខ្លាំងណាស់ដែលត្រូវជាខ្មែរ។ (moutea'nie pʰiep klang nah dael trəv chie kmae)
- No pressure, no diamonds = បើគ្មានសម្ពាធ មានគឺមិនមែនជាត្បូងពេជ្រ។ (baə kmien sampietʰea', mien kɨɨ mɨn mɛɛn chie tboong pɨch) —Stephen (Talk) 06:43, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

English to Japanese[edit]
i need help in translating this sentence to Japanese "let's me kiss your pain away"
- Do you mean "let me kiss your pain away"? 僕のキスが君の痛みを無くすよ (boku no kisu ga kimi no itami o nakusu yo). It's not an exact transaltion, meaning "my kiss(es) will rid you of (your) pain", said by a man to woman in informal style. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:46, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
Can Anyone Please Translate this Sentence To Japanese ?[edit]
I want this sentence to have the exact meaning in Japanese,
"Truth Will not necessarily bring you peace"
Thank You
- I'll have a go at this translation: 真実は必ずしも平和をもたらすわけではない (shinjitsu wa kanarazushimo heiwa o motarasu wake dewa nai). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:40, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
Latin to English[edit]
I'm new to Latin, but I made a phrase I wanted as a personal motto. I wanted to make sure I was interpreting it correctly. It's really short: "Erra quovis." I want it to mean "wander to whatever place." I know errare also means "to be mistaken" - it is exactly that vague double-meaning that makes me like the quote, if I am interpreting it right.

- Are you sure you mean Sanskrit? Sanskrit is an ancient, dead language. Do you mean Modern Hindi, which is written in the same alphabet as Sanskrit? —Stephen (Talk) 17:43, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
english to gaelic[edit]
Good times Good Friends Good Health to you And the Luck of the Irish In all that you do. Here's to you!
English to Icelandic[edit]
Can you, please, translate the Irish anthem to Icelandic? (It starts with something like "Hermaða eruð". Please preserve both the meaning and the meter. Czech is Cyrillized (talk) 03:40, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
- Poetry and song lyrics are very difficult to translate at all. If you add the constraints that both meaning and meter are to be preserved, it becomes virtually impossible. When songs are translated to another language in a way that is intended to be sung to the same melody, the meaning is sacrificed. The price for something like that would be in the thousands of dollars. —Stephen (Talk) 16:23, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
So please make a translation to fit the meter, where only minor grammatical changes (verb tenses and cases) are changed to comply with the meter. Czech is Cyrillized (talk) 23:39, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
- If it fits the meter, the meaning will be completely different. It will be an entirely different song, except for the melody. And I would have to charge you at least a couple of thousand dollars before I started (nonrefundable, and no guarantee that you will like the results). —Stephen (Talk) 03:39, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
English to Latin[edit]
'Nothing more, nothing less.' --Æ&Œ (talk) 01:20, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Can you please translate for me[edit]
Hi there could you please translate the serenity prayer in to Tibetan Sanskrit for me please for a tattoo. Very much obliged.
- There's no such language as "Tibetan Sanskrit". Tibetan and Sanskrit are two completely different languages written in two completely different scripts. —Angr 20:44, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
- BTW, Sanscrit can be written in many scripts, including Tibetan. Some alphabets in Asia have special letters for Sanskrit. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 23:55, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
