From English to Urdu (03:05, 9 January 2017 (UTC))
Terms "democracy" and "republic"

It seems there could be a false cognate with Arabic and descendants. In Arabic means only "republic" and this meaning is used in loanwords in other languages (Persian, Turkish, Pashto, etc.). In Urdu, or  are used loosely and can mean both "republic" and "democracy". There are other spellings possible.

(I used a loose transliteration, since our Urdu transliteration is not strictly defined and my resources on correct Urdu pronunciation are not so great.) --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 03:05, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * PPS: Many Germans would actually be a bit confused here, too. Because, as you may be aware, the intransitive "ersaufen" does get an umlaut in the 2nd and 3rd persons singular of the present, so both verbs merge in these two forms (ersäufst, ersäuft). 13:41, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

 * It really depends on the context you are talking about. Infinitives are like saying 'to hide it', a general verb sense when expressed without a subject. The reflexive is like 'to hide itself'. If you are commanding someone or some people, you must use the imperative. Using  when 'it' is masculine and  when 'it' is feminine. When talking to more than one person, use the plural. You must use the formal when talking to a stranger or superior that is older than you. Use  in the same way as well – AWESOME meeos ！ ＊ （「欺负」我） 01:21, 12 January 2017 (UTC)


 * I would use the verb instead, as this is used by the Spanish wiktionary as well. --kc_kennylau (talk) 10:32, 12 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Very few linguists pose questions here. For nonlinguists, it's confusing to most when you give them many choices, and worse if you include technical terms (e.g., infinitive, reflexive, command, masculine, feminine, noun). In a forum such as this, usually you should limit yourself to two versions at most (one if possible), and only use everyday language in explanations that any 8-year-old child would understand. For "hide it," I would probably say ocúltalo and leave it at that. I would not get into the subject of gender or object pronouns unless someone specifically asked about it. Also, I would not use IPA here (unless I knew I was addressing a Russian). Americans (I don't know about Brits, Kiwis, etc.) know nothing of IPA. You might as well write the pronunciation in Cyrillic. —Stephen (Talk) 13:13, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Some of these statements are far from the truth but I will translate them, anyway even if you don't like me. Stephen's Russian is very good but he is not a native speaker (and must be out of practice lately).

 * Small corrections and stress marks from me. Without the context I'd use "пої́хати" (to go by any transport), "полеті́ти" means "to fly". Also "want" has no politeness, so "я хо́чу" is more accurate than "я хоті́в би". --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 12:19, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Guess what what the sentence and its translation is all about! – AWESOME meeos ！ ＊ （「欺负」我） 12:39, 19 January 2017 (UTC)


 * IPA is irrelevant on this page, and besides, the Ukrainian pronunciation module is imperfect. The knowledge of IPA has little to do with the knowledge of the language. Yes, Russians can understand a lot of Ukrainian but not 100%, if this is what you're asking. Please don't copy IPA from various IPA modules for different languages here. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 12:51, 19 January 2017 (UTC)


 * , Russians know IPA well, but they would be much more comfortable with the Ukrainian spelled in normal Cyrillic. The IPA is only for English-speaking linguists who cannot read Cyrillic. —Stephen (Talk) 13:36, 19 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Russian and Ukrainian have both slightly different pronunciation systems, how would Russians know the differences in phonology between theit language and Ukrainian? Surely, avid Russian linguists would also use IPA to express Ukrainian (and Russian) – AWESOME meeos ！ ＊ （「欺负」我） 21:16, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
 * As Stephen said, IPA is used by linguists, not just English. There are native means to render/imitate other languages, even if they are not 100% accurate and are often used in pejorative ways. In many instances, Russians and Ukrainians are exposed to each other's language more than any other language. The current Ukrainian IPA module is based on a specific accent, which is not necessarily the most common and not even 100% standard. Also, there are some imperfections. In the real life Ukrainian and Russian don't sound so different to make them hard to understand. Mutual comprehension is very high, sometimes one-sided. Ukrainians, for obvious reasons, know Russian better than the other way around. ---Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 21:28, 19 January 2017 (UTC)


 * , Russians would not know what language your IPA represents unless they knew Ukrainian phonology, and most don't. If you spell it in Cyrillic, people easily recognize that it is Ukrainian. If someone does not speak Ukrainian, they will usually pronounce the letters with Russian sounds, just like monolingual Americans pronounce French or German words with English sounds. Avid Russian linguists who are interested in Ukrainian learn how the letters are pronounced in Ukrainian and write the language in Cyrillic. Ukrainian is phonetic, so it is much easier to learn Ukrainian pronunciation of Cyrillic than to try to read and write in IPA. Russians use IPA for the purpose of studying English, because English is not phonetic. They have little need to use IPA for languages that are written in Cyrillic. —Stephen (Talk) 22:46, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

"かわいくなりたい 人はぁ～ ♡♡"

Does it mean: "Be cute, people!"

The source is the 2nd Disney fanart in this page: http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga&illust_id=54141643

Daniel Carrero (talk) 14:28, 17 February 2017 (UTC)


 * : The meaning is closer to, "people who want to be(come) cute..." ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 20:04, 17 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Is it not "people want to become cute"? (かわいくなりたい "want to become cute" + an explanatory 人は "people ...") —suzukaze (t・c) 09:16, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Eirikr is right. The whole sentence is an attribute for 人. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 09:23, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
 * suzukaze, if there were a mood particle (ね、よ、etc) or punctuation between the なりたい and the 人, then I'd agree with you right off the bat. Given the lack of any particle or punctuation, it reads more like a full phrase without a stop in the middle, where かわいくなりたい directly modifies 人, and the extended はぁ～ looks like the topic particle は drawn out for effect.
 * Given also the context, where it looks like the speech bubble is in direct relationship to the background note that this was at a recruiting meeting, I interpret this more as the speaker commenting on the kinds of people they hope to recruit. As in, "those of you who want to be[come] cute, [please come this way and sign up for interviews]..."
 * That's my 2p, anyway. :)  ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 22:05, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

 * You would say: " Kriegst du den Fleck hier ab?" At least I've never heard abbringen in this sense. Duden does have it, but it's obviously very rare. There's only one google hit for "Fleck abbringen" and, interestingly, it's this Japanese page: . I suppose that's just a funny coincidence, but who knows.
 * At any rate, for those who do know Japanese but don't know German, the sense is: Can you get off this stain? Kolmiel (talk) 17:12, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

 * : You're obviously much better than me in terms of Japanese. However, the website you quoted translates "einen Fleck abbringen" as "汚れを落とす", so I'm wondering if we should use the same phrase:
 * The German text is quite strange, as its word order suggests either a question without the question mark, in case it would still be strange (Do you remove this stain?), or a command using the wrong conjugation (Bringe instead of Bringst), so I translated it as a request. Also, extra informality by removing を. --kc_kennylau (talk) 01:14, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

 * No, sir. The phrase is already inherently colloquial. Formally one would say: "Kannst du diesen Fleck entfernen?" And when it's colloquial, kriegen is definitely more common than bekommen.

Anyway, there isn't really a single word for thanks AFAIK, unless you want to keep the "I give ... to you" part implicit (which I'm not sure is a thing you can actually do in older Latin -- possibly done by analogy with modern languages in Neo-Latin, though), in which case: Ego quoque, gratias. (where the gratias, being in the accusative case, is morphologically understood as the object of an implicit verb). If I were addressing a single person, I'd say fully, with verb and indirect object: Ego quoque, gratias tibi ago; speaking to multiple people, it'd be Ego quoque, gratias vobis ago. — Kleio (t · c) 20:25, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * P.S., this is assuming that the "me" in your "me too" is used in a reply as if it were nominative (i.e. 1: I'm tired. -- 2: Me too.); if you're replying to a sentence where the other person/s is/are the object of a verb (i.e. 1: He hates me. 2: Me too.) you'd replace ego with me, the accusative singular; if you were replying to a sentence where the other person/s is/are the indirect object of a verb (i.e. 1: He gave me a present. 2: Me too.) you'd replace ego with mihi, the dative singular. — Kleio (t · c) 20:31, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

The Wikipedia article says this: The series' title is German as well as Dutch for "Elves' Song" or more formally "song of the elves'" and takes its name from the song "Elfenlied", which is featured in the story.

 * Yes. Or simply.
 * Personally, I'm not a fan of writing these word-inital glottal stops in German IPA. It's not that other languages, like Dutch or English, never use glottal stops in that position. Nor is that German always uses them (although that is sometimes claimed). The truth is that there's a tendency to use them more. It depends on the dialect how pronounced that tendency is.

 * It's Gujarati letters, but it means nothing in Gujarati that I know of. If you googled it, Google usually has to run an OCR program to get Gujarati texts, and OCR for any scripts other than Roman is not very accurate. OCR is especially inaccurate with scripts where two or more glyphs combine into a shape that is unlike any of them, and where different letters have very different widths. So it is very possible that this is a scanno for something else, maybe . —Stephen (Talk) 03:13, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Whereas all the words are French and correctly spelt, the lack of syntax makes this sentence meaningless. Lets have a guess... Another problem is to translate T-V distinction.

Akkadian original title of the Code of Hammurabi (02:50, 23 June 2017 (UTC))
The Wikipedia article says that the Code of Hammurabi was written in Akkadian.

How do you write "Code of Hammurabi" in Akkadian? What is the original title of that work, if that makes any sense?

--Daniel Carrero (talk) 02:50, 23 June 2017 (UTC)


 * The Code of Hammurabi was a stone document that listed the laws, but no title was attached to it. You can see the full Akkadian text written in the Roman alphabet here, as well as the translation. I don't think that Ḫammurabi himself called it the "Code of Hammurabi", that's just the name that we have assigned to it. Ḫammurabi might have called it the Laws of the Sun God or something of the sort. Akkadian was written in cuneiform. Ḫammurabi's name does not appear anywhere in the Code of Hammurabi. Here is the w:Cuneiform (Unicode block). You can find the name Ḫammurabi (Ḫa-am-mu-ra-pi2) written out in cuneiform here, but the encoding used is not Unicode. It's a proprietary code.

From [Norwegian] to [English] (16:56, 1 July 2017 (UTC))
From 2002 output of Digitalarkivet: 1865-telling for 0542 Nordre Aurdal. I am trying to understand the census column titles. Here is a list of these apparently missing on en.WT:


 * Skoledistrikt - school district
 * Prestegjeld - priest+debt, tax region?
 * Gardsnavn - farm name (is this a specific farm, or a local agricultural district?)
 * Familiestatus - family+status, relationship?
 * Sivilstand - civil+state, marital status? (g = gift, ug = ugift)
 * Stort kveg - big+cow, adult cattle?

Two column titles are bygg and poteter, which I am assuming refer to some measure of land planted in these crops? probably outside of scope.

--Amgine/t&middot;e 16:56, 1 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Skoledistrikt – school district
 * Prestegjeld – parish
 * Gårdsnavn – farm name
 * Familiestatus – person's status (in the family) (i.e., husband, wife, etc.)
 * Sivilstand – marital status (gift – married, ugift – unmarried)
 * Stort kveg – cattle


 * bygg – barley
 * poteter – potatoes —Stephen (Talk) 17:35, 1 July 2017 (UTC)


 * For a couple of these I think a native speaker may be desired. Especially prestegjeld (census already has column sogn) and familiestatus (census record includes a logerende.) From my personal rural history, there is a useful distinction between calves and adult cattle, and the collective is storfe but also kveg appears to be dialectic, or at least old-fashioned (as one would expect with an 1865 census), modern is ku. - Amgine/t&middot;e 20:01, 1 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Are you sure about familiestatus (= "status in the family")? I suspect it's the same as English "family status" and German "Familienstatus" (more often "Familienstand"), namely a slightly more detailed category vis-à-vis "marital status", which might include information about unmarried house partners, children, etc. Kolmiel (talk) 15:44, 9 July 2017 (UTC)


 * AIUI, familiestatus = "family status" is the "position in family", so you'll see Husfader (father of the house); hans kone (his wife); deres søn (their son); logerende (lodger); tjenestejente (maid), and so on. In the context of the census, it's just the relationship of that person to the head of the household. --Catsidhe (verba, facta) 21:43, 9 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Oh. Yeah, I now see that I did a sloppy job in looking up the English word. I saw two quotes on google and interpreted them wrongly. Sorry. I've even found a few attestations for this use in German, although the normal sense of Familienstatus really is what I said above. Kolmiel (talk) 14:45, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
 * I've created Familienstatus. We don't have family status yet. Kolmiel (talk) 15:08, 10 July 2017 (UTC)


 * I should probably add (relating to the question about ) that farms in Norway are traditionally named and are known by those names, which may have hundreds of years of history. My own Norwegian ancestors, for example, came from a farm named Solum, in the sub-parish (sokn of (depending on the date and the shifting of boundaries) Sævik, Klinga, or Vemundvik, in the parish (prestegjeld) of (again, depending on the date) Fosnes or Overhalla, in the Namdalen region, Nord-Trøndelag. Around 1900 there was a push to move from patronyms to surnames, and many used their farm name as their surname: my great-grandfather among them. Farm names are traditionally important, and if you don't believe me, check out Olaf Rygh's nineteen volume , which is [searchable]. --Catsidhe (verba, facta) 22:24, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

 * If you speak both Arabic and English at near-native level you're very unlikely to find anybody here who can do this better than yourself. I will tell you my reading of it. But since my Arabic is not near-native at all, the reading may be flawed.
 * I'd understand it on the lines of: "He has brought many together, but no one can help the fools." The first part could mean that he united them to some end, or that he brought them back to the right path. The second part seems relatively clear to me: "He's not the keeper of the stupid", in the sense of: "They are a lost cause." Kolmiel (talk) 02:07, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

 * اََلَّفَ شَتَّى لَيْسَ بِالرَّاعِي الحَمِقْ......شَذّابَةٌ عَنْهَا شَذَى الرُّبْعِ السُّحُقْ
 * The sharah: يعني الحمار ألف وجمع ما تفرق من الاتن وليس بالراعي الحمق أي الاحمق
 * It means the donkey compiled/gathered what are divided from the female (donkey) and he (the male donkey) is not a bad shepherd i.e. stupid one

 * Philmont Scout Ranch is een ranch in Cimarron, New Mexico, die in het bezit is van de Boy Scouts of America. Scouts gaan voornamelijk naar Philmont voor lange backpackingtrips van 7 tot 14 dagen naast andere activiteiten. Het is het grootste scoutingterrein ter wereld en is een van de grootste jongerenkampen ter wereld naar oppervlakte. De ranch was voorheen het eigendom van de oliebaron Waite Phillips, die in 1938 het landgoed uitleende aan de BSA.
 * Notes: "scoutingterrein" is a pretty makeshift translation for "scouting reservation", there doesn't seem to be an equivalent Dutch term; "uitleende" is a literal rendering of "lent", but as the ranch was an endowment "schonk" or "begiftigde" seems more appropriate.

 * Hmm, I saw the request but I didn't want to service this abuse. It's funny but why does a "bald old man/granddad" (Ukrainian) mean "fucking dog" (English)? I am just curious about the choice of words, not saying it's totally wrong. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 12:13, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
 * We can't translate "fucking dog" literally, so we have to try to think of what a Ukrainian person might actually say under the circumstances. Ukrainian дідько = чёрт, бес, so it's like "bald devil". I think is an intensifier, to make it more offensive. Translating bran’ is tricky and it requires creative thinking. Also, the English does not quite make sense. If she is speaking to someone in particular and calling him a fucking dog, then she would not ask him who stole the purse. She would only call him a fucking dog if she thought he stole it. But if she really does not know who stole her purse, then it would be illogical to call an innocent listener a fucking dog. Therefore, I took the other person out of the scenario and changed "you fucking dog" to something more like "God damn it" or "Jesus H. Christ". —Stephen (Talk) 19:52, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

 * It might have had the most unfortunate consequences had I been stubbornly seaworthy. —Stephen (Talk) 06:14, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks Stephen - my attempt was pretty good then. For "tenir la mer", it seems like a set phrase to me. I found the following definition on TLFi: "Naviguer sans se rapprocher de la côte", so instead of "seaworthy" I will change my translation to "[...] had I stubbornly sailed without approaching the coast.". Or does English have a set phrase with the same meaning? BigDom 08:30, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
 * In this case I think that "tenir la mer" means "naviguer en haute mer". My proposal "had I stubbornly sailed on the open sea". Aside "que je fusse" is "être" in imperfect subjunctive tense (first person singular form). --AldoSyrt (talk) 09:08, 25 August 2017 (UTC)

 * The conjunction is "pour peu que", not "pour peu". The sentence sounds ungrammatical, and should be "[...] pour peu que je me fusse obstiné". And if there's really no "que", then it's not an expression used currently at all. --Barytonesis (talk) 19:49, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
 * You are right. For me it was obvious that "que" was missing in the quote by the OP. See here (chapter  xviii. 369). I should have written: "pour peu que" [+ subjunctive] in my answer. My fault. Apologies. --AldoSyrt (talk) 07:51, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

Slightly unusual translation request here. There's a song in Portuguese by Milton Nascimento called "Viola Violar", and I'm having trouble understanding the gist of the song. The title seems as though it could be translated as "Guitar Rape" or "To Violate a Guitar" or something like that? I'm really quite stumped. And the lyrics of the song are equally incomprehensible to me as a non-Lusophone. I'm not asking for a word-for-word translation of the lyrics, but if someone could explain what the song is about it would be really helpful.

From English to Moroccan Arabic (14:06, 13 September 2017 (UTC))
, everyone with the interest in Arabic ad specifically Moroccan is welcome to contribute.

I need to verify the correctness of the Arabic spelling and some other things. I only have the romanised version (I am normalising it a bit per our Wiktionary standards):


 * Is "ماگانة" standard in Moroccan Arabic? I can see "ماكانة" used as well. Is there a "standard" way to render "g" or it depends on the word and the writer?
 * It's more or less clear here. It's being discussed if "ž" is OK to use with Arabic dialects for ج and "بيت" apparently means "room", not "house".
 * [fixed translit] According to my book, ر is emphatic in رجل and شرجم above, using "ṛ" for the transcription. The pronunciation module can't handle it yet.
 * No idea if the spelling "كنش" is right, since there are no long vowels, it may as well be "كناش". --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 14:06, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Based on my reading of the Wikipedia page (which contradicts itself a bunch of times...), the above sentences should be pronounced something like this:
 * Am I close? I'm also wondering why the definite article doesn't assimilate to the /d/. --WikiTiki89 14:44, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, very close, thanks, only ṛažel should probably be rɑʒɪl, since it's emphatic but I am just trying to understand the rules. "šeṛžem" looks good, though. It's "fe-d-dar", I made a mistake. Not sure about "fayn" yet, they don't describe diphthongs well but I think it's [fæjn]. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 21:27, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * What book are you using? Regarding رجل (again, based on the Wikipedia page), the true reflex of a short vowel near an emphatic is [ɐ] (not near an emphatic or pharyngeal, it would [ɪ]). The true reflex of a long-a near an emphatic would be [ɑ]. It is of course possible that in this word, the "short" vowel shifted to a "long" vowel, but I think it's more likely (without further evidence) that the a in the transliteration is just representing the emphatic realization of the short vowel. --WikiTiki89 21:35, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I am using this book, which has a lot of focus on the pronunciation. It's a longer type of "a" here, otherwise, they would use "ṛežel" or "ṛužel". Consider it as "ṛāžil" but Moroccan doesn't have truly long vowels. They are quite consistent in rendering sounds. Confirmed my assumption on "fayn". --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 22:16, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I see, as long as you're sure. And it's not as though Moroccan doesn't have long vowels, it's that according to these analyses vowel length isn't phonemic. --WikiTiki89 23:07, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm sure about the pronunciation and now I can listen to the actual recording, Now I think it should be spelled but as dialect orthography is not standardised, borrowing from fuṣḥā occurs quite often. The same situation occurs with many Chinese lects due to the similar diglossia. I only have access to the romanisation and audio. I was hoping someone suggests the right spellings as well. I'll try asking around about the spellings. I have some reservations about Moroccan resources - e.g. if I find a word in my textbook or phrasebook I have trouble confirming it elsewhere. Western dialects have lots more differences form the standard and from each other and even inside country boundaries there seems to be a lot of varieties.--Anatoli T.

 * I don't think "empire" translates to anything romantic in Dutch, but here it goes. It's in Dutch from the Netherlands, with an informal tone:
 * Ik hou van jou, mijn mooie engel, hou meer van jou dan je in zo korte tijd kunt weten. Ik kan niet wachten om met jou een rijk en een mooi leven op te bouwen.
 * This assumes that you don't mean empire as a country governed by an actual emperor. If you do mean that, you should say/write keizerrijk instead of rijk. Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 09:22, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

True, it can also mean wereldrijk and empire even translates into imperium if it pertains to businesses. 2001:1C02:1907:9500:ACFD:AB5D:FDF:B466 13:21, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Is it really inherently derogatory, or is it just that it happens to be used in derogatory contexts. My intuition is that if used in the right non-derogatory context, it would not be derogatory in the least.

We don't do large pieces of text, or anything that appears to be homework, or anything that appears to be something important that a professional translator should be doing. After all, we don't want to cheat students out of studying and learning, and we don't want to take work away from any professional translators. Also, some languages are too difficult and no one wants to tackle them, such as Sanskrit (sometimes I'll do a little Sanskrit, but more often I just don't have the time). —Stephen (Talk) 09:43, 25 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Over a month ago, I posted a request asking for two quotes to be translated to Latin. The specific dialect I requested was Old/Classical Latin, something nobody can speak anymore (I hold a silly belief that modern contemporary Latin (as spoken by the Vatican) is not "true Latin" (as spoken by the ancient Romans)). I deleted that request the same time I posted this one because as you've said, no one wants to do something overtly difficult, so in that sense I was asking too much. I guess I haven't wised up much from 4 years ago when I got carried away from seeing people giving requests in Norse, Egyptian script, and even cuneiform languages. And yes, I fully understand those reasons. It makes me hate myself a little more knowing I don't trust myself with my own skill and have neither the finances nor the social connections to properly learn a language.

Meu animal favorito é o pinguim, porque sua abordagem desajeitada é muito engraçada. Prefiro ver pingüins em documentários do que nos jardins zoológicos porque os pinguins são infelizes em gaiolas. Um pinguim pode se afogar, no entanto, se permanecer na água durante muito tempo porque não é um peixe, mas não é um mamífero, nem porque não produz leite. Se os pinguins pudessem voar, não perderiam tempo pescando em água fria. Os fones de ouvido servem para ouvir as músicas que os pinguins podem ver. É por isso que eu realmente amo os pinguins!


 * Mon animal préféré est le pingouin, parce que sa marche maladroite est très drôle. Je préférerais voir des manchots dans les documentaires que dans les zoos, car les pingouins sont mécontents dans les cages. Un manchot peut toutefois se noyer s’il reste longtemps dans l’eau, car ce n’est pas un poisson. Ce n’est pas non plus un mammifère, car il ne produit pas de lait. Si les pingouins pouvaient voler, ils ne perdraient pas de temps dans l’eau froide. Les écouteurs sont utilisés pour écouter les chansons que les pingouins peuvent faire.

From German phonetic transcription to IPA (17:43, 24 December 2017 (UTC))
Source: Proben hoch- und niederdeutscher Mundarten von Alfred Götze, p. 2f.

I'm not asking for a translation of the text but of a translation of the phonectic transcription as described in that text into IPA.

My guess: ą = [ä] ? thus ā ē ī = [aː] [eː] [iː] and [e with line above and tail] [ǫ with line above and tail] = [ɛː] [ɔː] [turned i, similar to !] = [ɪ̈] or [ɨ̞] ? x = [x] or [χ] ''? b d g (Upper German) = [b̥] [d̥] [ɡ̊] = [p] [t] [k] p̄ t̄  k̄  = ?
 * a e i o u ö ü = [a] [e] [i] [o] [u] [ø] [y]
 * ę į ǫ ų [ö with tail] [ü with tail] = [ɛ] [ɪ] [ɔ] [ʊ] [œ] [ʏ]
 * line above vowels = [ː] (ː put after letters, not above or below them),
 * ė ȯ = [ɘ] [ɵ] ?
 * å = [ɒ] ?
 * ä = [æ] ?
 * y = [ɨ] ?
 * Murmelvokale: [turned a, similar to ɐ] [turned e, similar to ə] = [ɐ] [ə],
 * χ = [ç]
 * ł = [ɫ] ?
 * b d g (Low German) = b d g;
 * syllabic sonants (silbische Sonanten): ring below (as in m̥ r̥ ) = [ ̩] ( ̩  put below letters as in n̩)
 * [ŋ with line above] [ł with line above] [š with line above] x̄ = consonant character with [ː];
 * raised letter (as d r) = expressed with Unicode Character 'COMBINING LEFT ANGLE BELOW' (U+0349) as d͉  r͉  ?
 * This should be less doubtful:

g γ = [ɡ] [ɣ]; f​ s ​š​ v ​z ž = [f] [s] ​[ʃ​] [v] ​[z​] ​[ʒ]; ŋ = [ŋ]; h (in ph th kh) = [ʰ] --Upper German (talk) 17:43, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
 * nasalisation (Näselung) denoted by curvy circumflex: ~ = [~] (~ put above letters, not after them)
 * Haupt- u. Nebeton: ´ ` = [ˈ] [ˌ]
 * r [r with bow below] = ​[r] [⁠ʁ];


 * The way you've presented it is too much work. It would have been a lot better to put the letters you want converted to IPA (and the language they come from). As it is, it would probably take hours to do it. We only have maybe 10 minutes to spare for something like this. —Stephen (Talk) 10:12, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

ą ę į etc. are the corresponding open short vowels, ā ē ī etc. are the closed long vowels ę̄ ǭ etc. are the open long vowels. ė ȯ are extremely strong closed, å (å̄) is a wide open ǫ, ä is a wide open ę. Circumflex (curvy like ~) over a vowel character (ā̃ ẽ ō̃) denotes nasalation, also above w. y is a lowered i with darker sound. The turned characters (ɐ ə ı̣) denote a mumble-vowel. ´ denotes where necessary primary or main-stress, ` secondary or by-stress. Other ambiguous characters are split as well: χ substitutes ch as ich-sound (cp. ), x as ach-sound (cp. ). r is used for tip-of-the-tongue-r, r̯ for uvula-r. ł denotes velar l. From the real tenues p t k are distinguished the tenues aspiratae ph th kh, from the plosive g [is distinguished] the corresponding voiced fricative γ, from the voiceless f s š [are distinguished] the voiced v z ž. b d g denote in Low German dialects voiced lenes, in Middle or Upper German [dialects] voiceless [lenes]. Our ng (e.g. in ) is denoted by ŋ. Syllabic sonats are written m̥ r̥  etc. For consonants too length is denoted by a line above them: ŋ̄  ł̄  š̄ x̄  etc. p̄ t̄  k̄  mean that the syllable-border lies in the plosive. Raised characters (d r etc.) denote a weakly articulated sound.
 * It's a phonetic transcription used for High and Low German dialects.
 * I'd like to have all letters of the phonetic transcription converted to IPA (if that's even possible). I'm pretty sure about ​š = [ʃ], rather sure about ə = [ə], unsure about ä = [æ] for example.
 * I thought and hoped it wouldn't take so much time for someone having more knowledge of IPA or (German) sounds than me. The German phonetic transcription is explained on p. 2f. and has the length of less than one page. A rough English translation:
 * Vowels:
 * a e i o u ö ü denote closed short vowels with full vowel sound.
 * Consonants:
 * [...]
