How do you say '...I have spent with you.' in german?

 * 1) I think they say "...ich mit dir verbracht habe" --Tepo 09:28, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

"I have spent the weekend with you" = Ich habe mit dir das Wochenende verbracht. (Me, German native speaker)

How do you say "That dinner was a rip-off! I want a refund." in Spanish?

 * One way of saying it (practically word-for-word) would be: ¡Esa cena era una estafa! ¡Yo quiero un reembolso! (Unnatural and wrong choice of vocabulary)--> ¡La cena ha sido una estafa¡ ¡Devuélvame el dinero!
 * A more forthright approach is: ¡Esa comida era horrible! ¡Yo no pagaré la cuenta! (lit., That meal was horrible! I won't pay the bill!) (Wrong use of pronoun and verb)--> ¡Esa comida era horrible! ¡No pienso pagar la cuenta!
 * And if the food was toxic enough: ¡Ay, mierdas! ¡Esta comida apesta como un congal! ¡Chíngate, comemierda! (lit., %@#^$*! Latin American slang, not valid for Spain) Hope this helps! ☺ —Strabismus 07:35, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
 * La cena ha sido una tomadura de pelo.¡Devuélvanme el dinero! (Valid both for Spain and Latin America)
 * -But do you usually pay for your dinner before having it?

What is a "birkie"?
It's from the line "Ye see yon birkie ca'd, a lord," from the poem by Robert Burns. Here is a link to that poem:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Man's_A_Man_for_A'_That

But what does "birkie" mean?

 * I remember my prof telling us it meant something like 'a lively, smart youth' but could be used for people of all ages. It's also a whole lot of birch trees or the name of a card game.Gimil-Marduk 21:04, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

It can also mean a nordic skiing marathon--from birkebeiner

In California "birkies" is short for Birkenstock sandals.

A birkie is an irish man by the name of Burke. its origins are from the time the vikings conquered ireland. if ur american with irish ancestry this is ur best bet!

To make out
How do you say "to make out" in French? S'embrasser passionement? Se becoter?

 * This is an idiom with various senses, but from your guesses, it looks like you mean the sense "to kiss and cuddle". "Se bécoter" is slang for "to kiss each other" ("smooch" or "snog").  "Se peloter" is maybe closer as I think this involves touching as well as kissing.  Check a good French-English translation dictionary. — Paul G 14:44, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Knackig
'Knackig'. This word appeared on the label of a jar of pickled gerkins. What does it mean in English

It's German for a type of firmness or crunchiness. Not to be used for cereals, though, only for things that are somewhat crisp - it's a classic for fruits and vegetables. If you have to translate it, best use crisp.

As an aside, it is also used for a pleasantly shaped, firm behind...

 * For more about behinds...see callipygous. - TheDaveRoss 04:37, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

pinyin translation!
what does 'hao di' mean in english?

It depends on the context. The most common meaning could loosely be translated as "okey dokey" (好的, Pinyin: hǎode, hǎodi). Other possibilities include: A-cai 03:09, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) 好地 (Pinyin: hǎodì): a good location
 * 那可是一块好地 (Simplified Chinese)
 * 那可是一塊好地 (Traditional Chinese)
 * That's a great location
 * 1) 好弟 (Pinyin: hǎodì): a good little brother, a good buddy

Suomi Translations
How do you say "i love you" in Suomi? How do you say "GoodBye" in Suomi? ... and "Hello"?

I love you: "Minä rakastan sinua."

Goodbye and hello can both be just a "Hei!" or "Moi!". If you're saying goodbye, you often repeat the words--saying "Hei hei!" or "Moi moi" when you leave! "Hei!" can be used anytime, but "Moi!" is a bit less official, not usually used with a total stranger.

The more formal/polite way of saying "goodbye" is "näkemiin". There is also a word for "farewell", "hyvästi", but it's not in popular use as it's considered very dramatic, saying farewell forever.

What on earth does the Danish word "mundret" mean?
Please help me if you know this. I have been researching this for so long, but I just cannot figure out what the Danish word "mundret" means. Please provide an explanation on the use of the word as well as a translation.

I would also appreciate it if someone could explain when to use "der" and when to use "som" as the relative pronoun. I just do not grasp it! Would it be correct to claim that "der" is only used when the relative pronoun cannot be omitted? If so, does that imply that you never need to use "som?" I also read somwhere that you can use "som" exclusively instead of "der," is that correct, and how would it sound to a Dane if you did that?

Thank you very much!

 * The Danish word "mundret" means "idiomatic". It consists of two etymons: 1) mund (mouth) and 2) ret (-ish, -like, of …) which together form a word which could most closely be translated as: "mouthish".
 * As for "der" and "som", der is a relative pronoun meaning "that", "which", or "who" and is also an adverb meaning "there". Likewise, som is a relative pronoun meaning "that", "which", or "who" but as an adverb it means "as" or "like". When the relative pronoun is the subject of the sentence either der or som can be used. However, when the pronoun is not the subject, only som can be used.
 * If you only used som as the relative pronoun, the way it would sound to a Dane would depend on a couple of things. For example, compare the following sentences:

In the third sentence the relative pronoun is more flexible than it is in the other two because "that" is invariable; i.e., it doesn't have any inflections. In English, you could just use the word "that", which itself is not awkward but wouldn't be as specific as using "who" and "whom". In this way, der is likenable to "who" (or "that" when used as a subject), whereas som is likenable to "who", "whom", and "that". Apart from that, you'll have to ask a native Dane how it sounds to him/her. At any rate, I hope that answers your questions!—Strabismus 02:14, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

 * 3) 请轮去 and I also got 请转弯离开

Hope this helps! --Yarnalgo 03:44, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm a native! XD But it might be different between Mandarin Chinese and my Hongkong Chinese.
 * 美不是说有就有. || mei3 bu2 shi4 shuo1you3 jiu4 you3.
 * The Chinese sentence means beauty is not something that can simply be conjured up. I don't believe this to be the original intended meaning.  The meaning of the original is that a woman's practical qualities (such as cooking) are more important than her beauty.  I could paraphrase what I just said in Chinese, but that would not be an authentic idiomatic translation.  It would simply be an explanation in Chinese.  If I do think of an authentic Chinese proverb that matches this sentiment, I will post it here. A-cai 13:53, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 吉普赛人，ˍˍ在呼唤着，请即离开. || ji2 pu3 sai4 ren2, ___ zai4 hu1 huan4 zhe, qing3 ji2 li2 kai1. || (Actually I don't quite get the meaning of the original phrase, can someone explain it a little bit? Thz)
 * 请即离开 literally means please leave immediately, this is not quite what we want (in other words, to be effective as a translator, you have to be fluent in both languages. You will not find that many people that have a sufficient knowledge of both idiomatic English and idiomatic Chinese to do justice some of these phrases).  Another key thing to successful translation is context.  By your leave usually means something like if you will permit me.  The question is ... permit me to do what?!  Based on what little information I have been able to find about the original phrase, I would say it should be permit me to speak, in which case the translation could be 吉普赛人，我ˍˍ在呼唤着，各位请听我说 Jípǔsàirén, ____ zài hūhuàn zhe, gèwèi qǐng tīng wǒ shuō. A-cai 13:53, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I suppose I should have been more specific, but I think A-Cai has very close to what I want to say. The phrase basically means "with your permission, gypsy people, I, (insert name here), would like to greet you". It is a formal way of greeting another Romany person. Thanks for your help and explanation.

What do you understand by "lovely weather." in Spanish?

 * "Lovely weather" in Spanish is "Clima encantador" --Yarnalgo 21:12, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

how do you say no and own in scottish?

 * There actually isn't a word for "yes" or "no" in Scottish Gaelic; you have to repeat the verb in the negative form. To do this, add "Cha" before the verb. But, use "Chan" if the verb begins with vowels or an f (if it does start with an f, it's lenited to fh). Probably the most often used form is "Chan eil," which is the appropriate negative response to "A bheil," the interrogative form of "Tha," the "is" word. For example,

 * Person 1: "A bheil thu a' dol dhan bhanca?" (Are you going to the bank?)
 * Person 2: "Chan eil." (No.)

 * Or

 * Person 1:"An deach sibh dhan bhanca?" (Did you go to the bank?)
 * Person 2:"Cha deach." (No.)

 * Notice that in both examples, the form of the verb used in the response is in the same tense as in the question.

 * Similarly, there is no word for "to own" in Gaelic. Instead, use the construction "X is at me." For instance, "Tha cat agam" means "I have/own a cat," but literally, "A cat is at me." The same applies to any person who might own something. If, say, Alasdair owns a necktie, one would say, "Tha taidh aig Alasdair" - "The tie is at Alasdair."

hinge in german
According to the French Wiktionary ( :-p ), it could be Gelenkband and/or Scharnier. I don't know the difference between these two. Kipmaster 13:04, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Scharnier is more general and has a more fashionable sound. Gelenkband (as I know it) refers to a specific form of a Scharnier. I would translate hinge as Scharnier. But "to hinge" - "hängen"!

The "Gelenkband" is longish hinge construction such as it is used to "hinge" the lid of a piano.

"Scharnier" is mostly used for hinges in furniture, devices etc., but door hinges are "Türangeln"

connected to nature? Its innacurate and confusing.
Question: I am not aware of a simple way in the English language to express being connected with something that one is already a part of. To say that we are connected to or with nature implies that we are separate from nature, which is not at all true. Is there a phrase or a word in any language that expresses connection within nature, while being a part of nature?

 * When a tree hugger is connected to nature the phrase is being used figuratively, not literally. Likewise any variety of one with nature, connected with nature etc.  --Connel MacKenzie 06:36, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) in Japanese?
What do the Japanese call High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) in their ingredient lists?
 * 高果糖コーン・シロップ (kougatou kōn・shiroppu) is the only term I can find for it. Might also be given as listed as 高果糖液糖 (kougatou eitou) which means "high fructose syrup". Kappa 01:40, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Hi. Kappa, the pronunciation of 果糖 seems to be "katou", not "gatou". And 液糖 is "ekitou". Anyway, Google showed me several results. Mar. 12 of this page and this page says:
 * The literal translation is 高果糖コーン・シロップ [kou ka-tou ko-on shiroppu], but this is not used in real situation.
 * There seem to exist three Japanese words for HFCS. They are,
 * ブドウ糖果糖液糖 [budou-tou ka-tou eki-tou] (fructose < 50 %)
 * 果糖ブドウ糖液糖 [ka-tou budou-tou eki-tou] (50 % ≤ fructose < 90%)
 * 高果糖液糖 [kou ka-tou eki-tou] (90 % ≤ fructose)
 * And all of them are the family of "isomerized liquid sugar", which is translated as 異性化液糖 [i-sei-ka eki-tou] (or, 異性化糖 [i-sei-ka tou] which is probably "isomerized sugar"; where 液 [eki] means 液体 [eki-tai] = liquid). The latter source also says that this 異性液糖 is sometimes just written as 液糖 (literally "liquid sugar").
 * Let's see actual examples. I'm looking at an empty can of this drink. There written: "糖類[tou-rui]（異性化液糖、砂糖[sa-tou]）" this is probably translated as "sugars (isomerized liquid sugar, sugar)", where 砂 means sand. Another example. Now I dashed and bought this drink. It contains "果糖ぶどう糖液糖" which is the same thing as 果糖ブドウ糖液 above (where ぶどう is hiragana form of ブドウ (katakana form)).
 * Note the hypens in pronunciation brackets are inserted as aids of reading, according to my feeling and do not have any special meanings. Hope this helps. - marsian 04:35, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Pls. explain the meaning of the word: "irrationalities", pls. give us example also.

 * "Irrationalities" (the plural of irrationality) are instances of being irrational; i.e., things done irrationally.

Beware of the irrationalities of buying things that are on sale which you don't actually need…
 * In other words, buying things impulsively just because they are being sold at incredibly low prices is usually the result of irrational thinking. That is, not considering future circumstances. "OK, this is a nice lifesize gorilla statue, I mean, I got it for ten bucks, but I don't really have room for it…"
 * Other than that, I don't know what else "irrationalities" could mean—for instance, it could be a term used in physics or information technology.—Strabismus 18:06, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

What do these Japanese words mean?
I can't find any tranlations for these Japanese words and a sentance, could someone help? Thanks! (:

'''Would anyone like to tell me the languages the katakana words come from? Please and thank you! (:'''

 * アミダ (AMIDA)
 * In the song, this is part of the word アミダくじ (amidakuji). It is part of an idiomatic phrase that means something like one's lot in life.  This message board provides a more detailed explanation. A-cai 08:10, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * クラリ (KURARI)
 * Fui ni ware ni kaeri KURARI (不意に我に返り来らり): kurari comes from the verb kuru (来る). From the best I can tell (mind you, I'm NOT a Japanese grammar expert), kurari (comes) is roughly the same as kitte (coming).  Therefore the translation would be: suddenly comes back to me.A-cai 22:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Wait, but KURARI is a katakana word, which means it's borrowed from another language. So, it couldn't come from a native Japanese verb, could it? Same question for CHIRARI.
 * In general, you are correct. However, katakana is also sometimes used for stylistic reasons that have nothing to do with the origin of the words.  I could be wrong, but that is my impression with both kurari and chirari.  If you want the opinion of a native speaker, I suggest contacting Tohru.  Tohru should be able to give you a more definitive answer.  A-cai 23:32, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

 * チラリ (CHIRARI) (could be ちらり, glance, glimpse)
 * Wakasa yue ni suguni CHIRARI (若さ故にすぐに散らり): again, chirari comes from the verb chiru (散る). chirari (disappears) would be similar to chitte (disappearing): to be disappearing.  Therefore, the translation would be: Therefore, youth soon disappears. A-cai 22:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Ahh, I see, it's the negative form of iru. Why is there a 'kute' in there though?
 * inakute gives it a feeling of presently happening. Something like not being here.A-cai 22:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * この海辺に残|残されていたのは (kono umibe ni nokosarete itano wa) I wish I could leave this seashore. A-cai 08:10, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * So "残されていた" is a verb, which means to leave? <IP_ADDRESS> 17:42, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * It comes from the verb nokosu (残す), which means to leave. A-cai 22:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * so what's the sareteita part of it for?
 * I'm not sure about the accuracy of the I wish part of the English translation (I just stole that from the website). Usually, verb + rete-ita would indicate causative past tense (was made to leave).  A-cai 23:37, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

 * This link contains the words to the songs in original and romanized form. It also includes English translations (except for the song traveling, click here for a translation of the song traveling). A-cai 08:10, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Haha, I actually translated traveling on wiki.thePPN.com. XD I had to guess what the words meant, because I couldn't find translations for them. That's why I asked what they meant. XD And in case you hadn't guessed, I'm also working on Letters. I'm still working on learning Japanese, so thanks for the help. :)
 * I'm glad you mentioned that. I was a little unsure of the translations, but figured somebody who knew more Japanese than me must have done the translation.  Anyway, I redid the words that come from the song traveling based on my gut impression of what they mean (rather than relying on the translation from the website).  These should all be vetted with a native speaker of course (my Japanese is pretty rusty).
 * Yeah, I did that translation quite a while ago, I've been thinking about redoing it. ^^; I've learned a lot since I did traveling. And I'm learning more everyday. lol. Hey, By the way, how did you know I was asking about Letters and traveling?

A-cai 23:27, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
 * How did I know you were asking about Letters and traveling? It was a gut instinct based my own experience from working with multiple languages.  After a while, you get a sense of the types of questions that people ask depending on their language proficiency.  Song lyrics are a common question for beginning and intermediate students.  The word inakute is a common verb conjugation that a student of Japanese would learn somewhere in the first year or two of study.  That's how I guessed your language level.  My suspicions were confirmed when I did a google search, and observed that all of the words were included in those songs.

Grevenko Sereth
Can someone please translate Grevenko Sereth into kanji/hiragana/katakana? If anyone is able to help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Sereth is セレナード according to InterTran but I have no idea what Grevenko is.

— The preceding request was made by Denyapart 21:25, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

 * No, セレナード is "serenādo". The name Grevenko Sereth (assuming that the "v" and "s" are pronounced as the English letters) would be グレヴェンコ・セレト (gurevenko・sereto). —Stephen 00:35, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

definition of a "rider" in french
Dear friends,

Could you please help me to find a definition od a rider in French.

"In theater (as well as musical performance) a rider is a set of requests or demands that a performer will set as criteria for performance". Wikipedia

Do French also say "rider" in this case or they have their special term?

Thank you in advance!

heiratic writing
hi...can anyone translate this saying into heiratic or demonic script or both...TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE.. THANX

I'm afraid either you, or the text where you found the word had misspelled it. I guess what you mean is "hieratic'. 'hieros' in Greek means 'holy', 'saintly', etc. Hieratic as an adjective is used for anything associated with priesthood.   Hieratic script often refers to the kind of writing of the ancient Egypt priests, the hieroglyphs.  The common citizen being unable to read it, the word acquired the meaning of secret, esoteric, etc.

engilsh phonetics and phonolgy.
[[Media:]]what is the differences between phonetics and phonolgy,what is the sound for each in phonolgy in english. can any one help me seplle this.
 * phonology is the science of human sounds (there 50 or so of them) that have linguistic significance in the creation and uttering of words. It is also the study of human speech, how it is articulated, and how over time, the sounds representing words change.
 * The definition of phonetics is bad. It has several meanings. For Americans of a certain age, it refers to a way of teaching small children to recognize the sounds of letters or combinations of letters as a way of mastering reading (and especially) spelling. My bad; the preceding describes phonics.--Allamakee Democrat 19:46, 14 July 2006 (UTC) It also refers to the relationship between actual sounds (phonemes) and their grapical representation, as letters, Egyptian heiroglyphs, Sumerian cuneiform, etc. There are some other senses in here too that don't immediately come to mind.--Allamakee Democrat 18:18, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Here's another way of looking at it:
 * Phonetics, in modern practice, usually means the study of pronunciation. It can also refer to the pronunciations themselves and how they are formed. For example, the word "phonetics" itself has phonetics which are written in the IPA as /fə.ˈnɛ.tɪks/. That's how the word is pronounced; those are its phonetics. Even though it has one pronunciation, the pronunciation makes up the words phonetics—i.e., phonetics in the plural.
 * Phonology is also the study of pronunciation, but whereas phonetics often deals with pronunciation as a whole, phonology usually deals with sounds individually; those sounds are called phonemes. Phonetics does deal with sounds individually but in the abstract sense, it generally focuses on the art of enunciation as a whole. In addition, and in linguistics, phonology also refers to a language's inventory of phonemes—its repertoire of sounds, if you will. That is, all of the sounds which are used by a particular language. For instance, English has a large phonology (number of individual phonemes) in comparison with, say, Hawaiian. Some languages have extraordinarily large phonologies (e.g., Juǀhoan, a Khoisan language and Ubykh, an extinct Caucasian language).
 * As for your second question what is the sound for each in phonolgy in english, I'm not sure what you are asking. Do you mean, how do you pronounce both phonetics and phonology in English?? If so, I've already provided the pronunciation of the former. But just in case, here's both of them:

phonetics : /fə.ˈnɛ.tɪks/ phonology : /fə.ˈnɑ.lə.ʤi/
 * I hope this helps.—Strabismus 18:45, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Dutch word krijten
Dictionaries list krijten as a synonym of huilen (to cry) but krijten has a more common meaning of drawing with chalk. Is this word used in a regional Dutch dialect, or is it obscure and not in use? Also, does it have the same etymology as English word cry?

 * Obscure, outdated and not in general use, yeah. Not used in any dialect I'm familiar with, but perhaps in another one. As for the etymology, presumably, but I'd have to look it up. Paul Willocx 13:17, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

 * You can only find it, to my mind, in an old-fashioned Christmas song, where the idea is the baby J is lying in the cold and the speaker tries to suss it to sleep. `Krijten' would be crying in a screaming way, not sobbing.  Hence close to `krijsen', to scream.

This song is so racist, full of hate and obscene that I doubt you'll get anyone to translate it.

It does not look like one song, because the words do not make sense as a whole. There are individual sentences from songs that I recognize, but they do not belong to same song. Many sentences are also incomprehensible. To the previous commentator I would like to say that times were different back in 40's.

I would like to have the following sentence translated into Latin.

To thine own self be true

my daughter's name in Gaelic Script
I would like to have my daughter's name translated into old Gaelic script. Her name is Brianna. I have been trying to locate this information for quite some time now, hopefully I've come to the end of my search!

Thank you in advance,

Andrea M.

 * Translation is about changing one language into another, not about writing a word with a different set of letters (which is called transliteration). I also have no clue how to type Gaelic characters so that you'll be able to read them on your computer screen.  However, I can suggect that you see if a local library has a copy of Ó Corráin & Maguire's book on Irish first names.  The book covers given names used in Ireland, and is arranged alphabetically.  At the beginning of each lettered section (such as the names beginning with "B"), the letter is written large and in Irish script.  So, if you can find the book, you can see all the letters you will need to write her name with Gaelic script. --EncycloPetey 23:39, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

true aramaic
i would like john 3;16 translated in aramaic

spanish translate
I wish to sleep with you do you wish to sleep with me

 * "Querría dormir contigo. ¿Quieres conmigo?" —Stephen 16:44, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I think Stephen thought you meant 'sleep' as in 'zzzzzzz'. 'Sleep' as a euphemism for 'have sex with' doesn't translate well into other languages, I don't believe.  A more accurate translation might be "Querría hacer sexo contigo.  ¿Querríaste conmigo?" ~Loiseaujoli

In spanish, we'd use "quiero acostarme contigo, ¿quieres tu acostarte conmigo?" Acostarse is go to bed--Qurtuba 17:17, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

translate phrase to aramaic

ruimtelijke ordening
what is "ruimtelijke ordening"in English?

 * It means spatial development in Dutch. —Stephen 06:46, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

 * That's a bit of a literal translation. The idea is "urbanism", as there's a ministry of it.  It is "land use" in that sense.

 * It means "I love" (אוהבת), spoken by a female. See אהב. —Stephen 06:57, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I don’t understand what you want. Do you want the pronunciation of "yesterday" in IPA symbols ? Or perhaps you want to know the constituent parts of the word, "yester-day". Or did you mean something else entirely? —Stephen 17:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

How do you say catering in spanish?
How do you translate catering into spanish? What's a caterer in spanish?

 * For catering, I would say, "abastecimiento de víveres". A caterer would be "abastecedor de víveres". —Stephen 23:48, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I have never heard "abastecimiento de víveres". I think "catering" is more common. The Real Academia Española also proposes "cáterin" in the DPD dictionary. --Tepo 11:04, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

the caterers are refereing to themselves as "restauradores", as are the restaurant owners, chefs, cooks, etc., as in "we restore you to being happy and full"--Qurtuba 17:20, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Corn syrup in Spanish
I live in Ecuador and I want to make some xmas goodies from home. Many of the recipes I have call for light corn syrup. Nobody I´ve talked to knows what I am talking about when I describe it. Do you know a translation for the words or an obtainable substitute?

 * Spanish for corn syrup is jarabe de maíz. —Stephen 10:47, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
 * If you can’t find jarabe de maíz, you can substitute (to replace one cup of corn syrup): 1 cup of azúcar (sugar) + 1/4 cup of water; or 1 cup of miel (honey); or 1 cup of melaza (molasses). —Stephen 10:57, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I also need to know how to say the following things, all in pinyin or simplified char. in a jpg also. Princess (name)--- I am 18 years old.

Also, i know the pinyin for Nicaragua (country in Cenral America) is Níjiālāguā but how would you say "I am Nicaraguan and (another country)"? I'm thinking its: Wǒ shì Níjiālāguārén, but i might be wrong.

 * Here is a fairly accurate and colloquial translation from someone's blog (in Chinese):
 * 我们所有的现状都是过去思想的结果. 心就是一切. 我们怎么想，就变成什么.
 * wǒmen suǒyǒu de xiànzhuàng dōu shì guòqù sīxiǎng de jiéguǒ. xīn jiù shì yīqiē. wǒmen zěnme xiǎng jiù biànchéng shénme.
 * All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think, we become.

 * (name)公主
 * (name)gōngzhǔ
 * Princess (name)---

 * 我十八岁
 * wǒ shíbā suì
 * ''I am 18 years old.

 * Níjiālāguārén would be correct if you are a citizen of that country. However, if your ancestors came from their, you would say:
 * 我有一半尼加拉瓜血統
 * wǒ yǒu yībàn Níjiālāguā xiětǒng
 * I am half-Nicaraguan (by blood). -- A-cai 11:29, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

amor chupar.
amor chupar is in spanish. the guy i like said it to me the other day.. and i dont know what it means. can anybody tell me? PLEASE!?!

 * It doesn’t make sense in Spanish. It says, "affection to suck". I think you must have written it down wrong. —Stephen 22:15, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

This could also refer to a hickey, chupeton...

this is a edit from a spanish guy (me, rafael). if he says "amor chupar", he is sayinfg, literally, "love suck" if you traslate it to english. he may mean "suck it, love", so...

 * 2) si zhi wei zhi
 * 3) si xiang wei yi qie
 * 4) wo si gu wo zai

Thanks in advance. -- unsigned.

 * Let me start off by saying that something seems fishy about your Chinese sentences. They are clearly not the work of a native speaker.  I'm guessing that you wanted to test out how accurately a web-based tool such as Babelfish could translate English phrases into Chinese.

 * yours: suoyou, wo men shenme de jieguo wo men ba xiang qu.
 * babelfish:所有, 我們是是什麼的結果我們把想法.
 * babelfish:suǒyǒu, wǒmen shì shì shénme de jiéguǒ wǒmen bǎ xiǎngfǎ
 * A poor translation of:
 * All that we are is the result of what we have thought. (from Dhammapada (Muller))
 * yours: tou nao shi yi qie. shen me wo men ren wei, wo men cheng wei.
 * babelfish:頭腦是一切. 什麼您認為您成為.
 * babelfish:tóunǎo shì yīqiē. shénme nín rènwéi nín chéngwéi.
 * A poor translation of:
 * The mind is everything. What you think you become. (supposedly said by Buddha; I can't find a specific original source text)

 * The others are not quite as bad as the above, but still awkward Chinese (except for "I am 18 years old" which is in perfectly colloquial Chinese):
 * I am 18 years old.
 * If you think it, you will be it.
 * Thought is everything.
 * I think therefore I am.

 * Please do NOT get a tattoo with any of the above text. Have a native speaker first put it into correct Chinese. -- A-cai 10:26, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

January in Spanish
How do you say January in Spanish?

Enero=January Bearingbreaker92 02:18, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Improper capitalization. It’s enero. —Stephen 08:30, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

 * That depends on whether you use the word as a proper name on its own right (for example, in a list of months: Enero - Febrero - Marzo...) or as part of a date (9 de enero de 2007, though actual usage varies).

 * That’s rubbish. Spanish enero is not a proper noun and is never capitalized unless it’s the first word of a sentence or used in a title. Usage varies only among the uneducated. —Stephen 22:58, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Stephen's got it right: Either enero is not considered a proper noun despite the fact that it is the name of a month or some proper nouns in Spanish are not capitalized (which comes to the same thing in the end). Either way, none of the months are capitalized in Spanish except in the cases Stephen mentioned.  Neither are nationalities/ethnicities (argentino, kazaco, brasileño), languages (español, aymará, ruso), or days of the week (jueves, viernes), among other things.  --Cromwellt|Talk|Contribs 23:08, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Spanish saying
HOW YOU SAY IN ENGLISH THE FOLLOWING SPANISH SAYING.. "GALLINA QUE COME HUEVO AUNQUE LE QUEMEN EL PICO"

Managerial Economics

Managerial Economics refers to the application of economic theory and the tools of decision science to examine how an organisation can achieve its aims or objectives most efficiently.

Managerial decision-making problems arise in an organisation when they seek to achieve some objective subject to constraints. For example, a telecommunication company may try to provide its service to as many customers as possible at the lowest possible cost. A hotel may seek to rent its room to the maximum tourists with limitations on its physical resources and budget. A university may aim to provide education to as many students as possible subject to the physical and financial constraints it faces.

Managerial Economics is a link between two disciplines, which are management and economics. The management discipline focuses on a number of principles that aid the decision-making process of organizations. On the other hand, economics is related to the optimum allocation of limited resources for attaining the set objectives of organizations.

The development of managerial economics is attributed to the close relationship that exists between management and economics (Brickley, Smith, & Zimmerman, 2015). For example, management requires a great deal of economic analysis in the carrying out of evaluations aimed at establishing the demand, cost, competition, and profit associated with certain goods and services (Brickley et al., 2015). On the other hand, management plays a significant role in guaranteeing that all challenges that may arise, particularly in the handling of employees are adequately addressed (Brickley et al., 2015). Thus, the combination of these two aspects of business results in managerial economics, which comprises of managerial theories and economic theories aimed at guaranteeing the development of a sustainable business environment (Brickley et al., 2015). The concept behind managerial economics is best elaborated by Spencer and Siegelman, who defined it as “the integration of economic theory with business practice for the purpose of facilitating decision making and planning by management” (Brickley et al., 2015).

Managerial economics meets its objectives by integrating diverse economic aspects such as microeconomics and macroeconomics. The study of microeconomics is aimed at understanding what influences specific business patterns at the regional level and is designed around studying the actions of firms and individual consumers (Brickley et al., 2015). Macroeconomics is centred on analysing the structure, performance, and the behaviour of the economy as a whole (Brickley et al., 2015). Managerial economics incorporates microeconomic principles to implement specific theories and techniques aimed at improving management decisions. Compared to macroeconomics, microeconomics has limited applications in managerial economics due to its limited scope (Brickley et al., 2015). This is because macroeconomics analyses aggregate indicators such as the unemployment rate and the GDP to provide a vast understanding of the factors that are influencing the general economy (Brickley et al., 2015).

The incorporation of microeconomics in managerial economics is influenced by the fact that they both advocate the need to utilise quantitative methods in evaluating economic data. By utilising quantitative analysing methods, it becomes possible to warrant that the human and financial resources required to manage a particular business effectively are allocated efficiently (Froeb, McCann, & Ward, 2015). On the other hand, the use of macroeconomics in managerial economics is based on its ability to provide a broader scope on the economy's overall condition. The information acquired using macroeconomics is what governments utilise in the establishment of policies aimed at enhancing an economy (Froeb et al., 2015).

Even though managerial economics is comprised of numerous functions, it's primary function is effective decision-making. This is attained by taking courses of actions that warrant that every challenge is addressed using the most suitable option derived from two or more alternatives (Froeb et al., 2015). The need to take the best course of action is influenced by the fact that in spite of the numerous roles an organisation plays, its responsibility to its shareholders is that the available resources are utilised in the best way post to warrant profitability (Froeb et al., 2015). Microeconomics and macroeconomics have played a significant role in the study of managerial economics. However, economists are far from fully understanding managerial economics with studies of managerial economics continuing today (Froeb et al., 2015). In addition to micro and macroeconomics, capital management, profit management, and demand analysis and forecasting are also considered to be covered under the scope of managerial economics (Froeb et al., 2015). Based on the evaluation provided, it is inevitable to note the significant role managerial economics has in warranting managerial challenges are handled in the manner possible using diverse economic concepts and decision science techniques.

Ksh Regular Expressions

Ksh has it's own regular expressions. Use an * for any string. So to get all the files ending it .c use *.c. A single character is represented with a ?. So all the files starting with any sign followed bye 44.f can be fetched by: ?44.f.

Especially in ksh there are quantifiers for whole patterns:

 * ?(pattern) matches zero or one times the pattern.
 * *(pattern) matches any time the pattern.
 * +(pattern) matches one or more time the pattern.
 * @(pattern) matches one time the pattern.
 * !(pattern) matches string without the pattern.

So one can question a string in a variable like: if $var = fo@(?4*67).c ;then ...

'Useless Trainwreck'
I'd just like to know if any other AfDs have ended up as 'USELESS TRAINWRECKS FROM WHICH NO DISCUSSION CAN EMERGE,' or something similar. I find it an interesting designation, no levity intended. -Toptomcat 16:31, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Note to interested admins
Technically, withdrawing this nomination was an exercise in WP:IAR as I have neither the authority, nor the backing of WP:SK to retract nominations after several people have voted delete. However, it is clear to me that the emerging consensus was that this was a bad faith nomination on my part. It is also clear to me that the technical device of adding to the "challenge" section would eventually cover all 49 articles, defeating the entire point of a group nomination. I doubt any admin will want to put process above everything and reopen this AfD, but if they do, I request that all my comments be struck out. — Kaustuv Chaudhuri 11:59, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I have reverted your invalid close; as you have indiated you already know, a nominator has no special rights to close an AfD once even a single other person has supported deletion, nevermind the fairly large majority supporting deletion here. --Aquillion 01:53, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think your reversion puts process over common sense, but whatever. Remember to add the afd banners back. I am not going to help you out. — Kaustuv Chaudhuri 02:05, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I've restored all of the AfD tags. — TKD::Talk 03:28, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * By the way, you should note that there wasn't anything close to a fairly large majority supporting deletion. The majority as of the moment I attempted to retract the nomination and as of this comment support keep or relist. Also AfD is not a vote and majorities have no meaning. Some of the delete voters obviously did not bother reading the nomination as their comments show a lack of awareness of key points raised therein, viz. the existence of List of Warcraft characters. See also the list of backlinks to this AfD, and you will observe that there has been a campaign to solicit participations from individual editors sympathetic to these articles. Such campaigns rarely lead to good AfDs. I am still very displeased that you reopened this, as it will continue its agonizing march towards a no-consensus, i.e., a collossal waste of everyone's time. — Kaustuv Chaudhuri 03:51, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Individual challenges moved from article
As it appears that the community is not in favour of allowing me to withdraw the nomination as a whole, it is therefore also impossible for me to withdraw the nomination for individual articles. Therefore, the intent of this section is manifestly invalid. It has been moved here from the main article.

 * This whole nomination is bad faith, and it should be strikken. I have asked the admin why he re-opened it. I will also look into getting it deleted all together. Havok (T/C/c) 14:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * If you continue to hold that there was bad faith here, you should bring it up before RfC or the ArbCom. Also note that the person who reverted my close isn't a sysop. If you want to get this AfD unlisted, I think it is imperative that you look into getting me banned in some fashion, as it is obvious then that I have a motive to damage Wikipedia. — Kaustuv Chaudhuri 23:06, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

All comments below this line should be for challenges to the nomination as apply to specific articles.

Comment to nominator Have you even read the articles you have nominated? Because if you did, you would understand from what is written about these characters, who is major and who is minor etc. Havok (T/C/c) 10:45, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Australian Vocational Education and Training/ICAU1131A - Operate a database application

From the official document:
 * "This unit defines the competency required to operate database applications and perform basic operations."

Basically, that means that you'll be able to create and use simple databases with two tables. You'll be able to add data, edit data, retrieve data, as well as perform some basic operations like creating reports to display your data and creating forms to help your users enter data.

You can read more about this unit on the National Training Information Systems Official document for ICAU1131A.

This unit is part of the IT Foundation units and is a prerequisite for most IT certificates in Australia.

How this unit will help you
After learning and applying the skills required by this unit you'll be able to demonstrate how you can:
 * Create database tables to store data in an appropriate format (eg. a name will be stored as text, and a price will be stored as a currency value) for your requirements.
 * Set a primary key for your table, use the auto-number attribute and create indexes where appropriate for your database.
 * Modify a table design, such as field names or types, or rearrange the fields in a table.
 * Use basic database design principles to design two tables and create relationships between them, such as in the image shown where one Customer can have many payment records (a one-to-many relationship).
 * Add and delete records in your database to verify your database design.
 * Use a wizard to create a simple form and modify the layout of a form according to your user requirements, enabling your users to enter information into the database easily.
 * Create queries to find specific information in a database, such as: "find all the records where the customer is Mr Jones and the purchase price is greater than $2000."
 * Create reports to present your data (such as the above query) in a more friendly format for your users - such as a printed report - and modify your reports according to your user requirements (changing font formatting, colours etc.)
 * Customise the settings of your database application, such as adding toolbars, changing fonts and adjusting layouts of forms, reports and relationship diagrams (like the image displayed above).

Ideas for learning the required skills
Classroom tuition and activities will be provided by your facilitator, but before long you will want to start experimenting with your own ideas and learning! A good textbook might be helpful (your facilitator may recommend one) There are also plenty of great online resources (see the Microsoft tutorials below) that you might like to try when you feel ready.

Recommended tutorial series

 * Road map to Access 2003 Training from Microsoft - these tutorials are excellent quality with audio and practical exercises to help you practice. Everything that you need to learn is included in these tutorials and presented in a fun, friendly way.
 * Database challenges - These challenges are currently in progress!

Text books
The following text books are developed specifically for this unit of competency:
 * Operate a database application (Access 2003)

If you want to test your knowledge with some questions, try the Database quiz questions

Ideas for demonstrating this unit
The best way to demonstrate these skills is show your assessor that you can create databases with all the criteria outlined in the official document for this unit (and summarised above). Ask your facilitator for an evidence sheet for this unit so that you can document evidence of your skills against the official criteria as you learn.

You might complete an assignment for handing in, or book a time with your facilitator to demonstrate your skills on the spot with a practical demonstration, or collect evidence from the activities you've done such as the Database challenges. Chat with your own facilitator to find out what options are available to you.
