 * OK. A simple way to say "Are you from Thailand?" is . Of course, you can add the masculine polite particle (if you're a man in Thailand just say "crap" :) ), feminine  and for "I" use  (masculine)  instead of more colloquial, gender-neutral  (some people think it's more feminine). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 03:20, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

日本のどこから来ましたか？

(Natural Korean preferred but close to the same grammatical structure of this Japanese, if possible, would be great.) &mdash; hippietrail (talk) 02:44, 16 July 2014 (UTC)


 * The Japanese phrase above means "Where in Japan did you come from?"
 * Korean:
 * The above is formal. 왔어요 (wasseoyo) is still polite but less formal than 왔습니까 (watseumnikka). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 02:54, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Re: "close to the same grammatical structure of this Japanese, if possible, would be great". They are quite close grammatically. Note that Korean doesn't have a question particle as such but formal polite style in interrogative ends in 까 (-kka), almost like Japanese particle か (ka). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 03:35, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Interesting. I've been saying the Japanese version for years since I had an insight that "no doko" might be syntactically correct, and it's always worked. I've tried the Korean version a few times, with Hanguk instead of Ilbon, and with the informal verb, and each time I wasn't understood. This makes me think it must have been due to my pronunciation alone. &mdash; hippietrail (talk) 09:13, 17 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Particle is usually pronounced just /e/, so, instead of /ha̠ngugɰi ʌ̹die̞sʰʌ̹ wa̠t̚s͈ɯ̈mnik͈a̠/ (한국의 어디에서 왔습니까?), say /ha̠nguge ʌ̹die̞sʰʌ̹ wa̠t̚s͈ɯ̈mnik͈a̠/, which is easier to utter for a foreigner. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 00:27, 18 July 2014 (UTC)

French to English
I know corrret is misspelled here but misspelled for what?

Someone please translate this (French is an extremely hard language for me to translate, unlike my second language, Danish):

Context:Mona the Vampire, Mona the Vampire Wiki with MediaWiki on monathevampirewiki.org

Talking about: why he likes Mona the Vampire

"Nous sommes content et félicite l'utilisateur Mona demande le Mediawiki de crée un Wiki Mona le Vampire, en anglais, le danois, le français et peut-être bientôt l'espagnol. Je pense beaucoup de Mona Parker son identité que moins son alter-ego Mona le Vampire parce qu'elle est vraiment mignonne, qu'elle est beh sage, ni trop tannée et ni enfin peut-être qu'elle ne pleure jamais dans la série, mais ça arrive dans l'un des épisodes c'est corrret. Aussi, j'ai sorti un livre en français Pétunia le Vampire : Retour vers le futur (Petunia the Vampire : Back to the future) et qu'à la fin de mon livre, croyez-le ou non j'ai laisse un commentaire à propos de la renaissance de Mona le Vampire afin demande la permission d'Orchard Books en Angleterre qu'un jour si je pourrais faire des suites de Mona le Vampire" And can you give me a translation that is easy to understand please? LalalalaSta (talk) 06:06, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I would guess "corrret" is meant to be "correct". This is pretty terrible French, full of grammatical errors and spelling mistakes so I can't work out what some of it's trying to say so I'll just do a pretty much word-for-word translation:
 * "We are happy and congratulate(?) the user Mona asks Mediawiki to create a Mona-the-Vampire wiki in English, Danish, French and perhaps soon Spanish. I think a lot of Mona Parker's identity less than her alter-ego Mona the Vampire because she is really cute, she is well wise, neither too tanned nor lastly maybe she never cries in the series, but that happens in one of the episodes, it's correct. Also, I have brought out a book in French called Petunia the Vampire: Back to the Future and at the end of my book, believe it or not, I left a comment about the revival of Mona the Vampire in order to ask the permission of Orchard Books in England that one day I might make the rest of Mona the Vampire."
 * BigDom 07:46, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you. This was certainly more helpful than Google Translate. Now I understand this much better! (: LalalalaSta (talk) 19:26, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

English to Mandarin
Are you Chinese / Taiwanese / Han?


 * This has a cultural aspect. If I think somebody is a native Chinese speaker but can't know yet whether they are from the PRC, ROC, or some other Chinese speaking community such as Singapore, what would be an appropriate, simple, natural way to ask?
 * I'd prefer to avoid a circumlocution like "Do you speak Chinese" unless that's the only way. In any case there's more than one Chinese language so that might also not solve the problem.
 * What would Chinese speakers be most likely to say if they wanted to ask strangers in Chinese whether they too are Chinese? &mdash; hippietrail (talk) 08:05, 20 July 2014 (UTC)


 * We should invite native speakers and advanced learners but in my experience Chinese (mainlanders) just use 你是中国人吗？ Even if, strictly speaking it's not politically correct, maybe(?). You can also look up translations at Han Chinese and Huaqiao, if you want to use a different word. Taiwanese (person) also has Chinese translations. --Anatoli T.

gewesen
Leopold von Ranke once said 'wie es eigentlich gewesen' and this phrase historians often cite, but I don't understand why the phrase is not: 'wie es eigentlich gewesen war' (or at least something that involves a direct verb or something). So why is that? 84.104.158.252 17:50, 26 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Unlike English, German does not always require a verb to make a complete sentence. For instance, these are perfectly good: kannst du Deutsch? Mein Name Stephen. Wie wir sie erfahren (as we learned them). The ellipsis of the auxiliary verb in ‘wie es eigentlich gewesen’ suggests that the past is encased in the present and moving toward an uncertain future. —Stephen (Talk) 18:14, 26 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks! What does your final comment mean exactly? 84.104.158.252 20:01, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
 * is a verb, I'm pretty sure. 20:07, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

I meant, what does 'The ellipsis of the auxiliary verb in ‘wie es eigentlich gewesen’ suggests that the past is encased in the present and moving toward an uncertain future' actually mean? 84.104.158.252 20:18, 26 July 2014 (UTC)


 * It means it’s not as strictly past tense as it would be with the auxiliary ist. —Stephen (Talk) 09:20, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
 * is a modal, which is a special type of verb. In English, modals have to govern another verb, an infinitive: I can speak German. English does not permit *I can German. —Stephen (Talk) 09:20, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

English to Polish
Richardson --Æ&#38;Œ (talk) 01:11, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
 * It might help to specify what you want to be translated :). Surname Richardson? It will be unchanged in Polish, although the adopted, phonetic rendering "Ryczardson" exists, officially it's Richardson. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 01:19, 28 July 2014 (UTC)


 * I was hoping that there was also a translation of the suffix -son (in this name). --Æ&#38;Œ (talk) 01:21, 28 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Surnames are normally not translated into languages using Latin alphabet but there are exceptions, e.g. Azeri. They can be transliterated into non-Roman based languages, e.g. Russian "Ричардсон". Sometimes they get adopted. So, Chopin in Polish can also be written as "Szopen". "Ryczardson" is another example. Suffix -son can have some form of equivalent, not translation, Polish surnames often end in "-owski"/"(i)ewski", "-owicz"/"(i)ewicz" but this is hardly a translation. Many Russian surnames have "-ов/-ев/-ин/-ын" "-ov/-(j)ev/-in/-yn", which denotes possession, which closer reminds -son/-sen. "Петро́в сын" means "son of Peter"/"Peter's son" (Пётр), "-owski"/"(i)ewski" has a similar or the same meaning. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 01:31, 28 July 2014 (UTC)


 * So there’s no native equivalent to Richardson? --Æ&#38;Œ (talk) 01:38, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
 * It doesn't look like there is one. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 01:56, 28 July 2014 (UTC)


 * I think probably the closest thing to -son is, but it is used only for Slavic names that already have it, not to translate Germanic or Romance names. By the same token, we don’t take a Slavic name that ends in and translate it to -son for his English name. Names are transliterated when necessary, but not translated ...  remains , and -son remains -son. —Stephen (Talk) 05:34, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
 * is just an adjectival suffix. It does not mean "son"; I recall it often gets attached to place names. or / would be closer:, , , , , , ,  (not sure if  follows the same pattern — it may be from the given name , the common noun , or yet something else; and I bet some exceptions can be found). Although there is also  and . And there is also , … so no real equivalent, I am afraid. — Keφr 13:41, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I would say the closest thing is the suffix -ов, like Anatoli said. --WikiTiki89 14:14, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
 * -ов is not Polish. — Keφr 14:29, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Oops. I wasn't paying very close attention. --WikiTiki89 14:31, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
 * As for the original request, you can always use Pietkiewicz as the translation for "Richardson". Not sure if that helps… — Keφr 13:45, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

Would you agree that galletto, magnaranocchie, mangiabaguette, mangialumache and mangiarane are citable? --Æ&#38;Œ (talk) 04:25, 1 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes, except I think magnaranocchie is a typo for mangiaranocchie. Most of those terms refer to what the French eat: frogs, baguettes, garden slugs. —Stephen (Talk) 07:11, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
