 |

English does not count as a wierd european language  Neither does french or spanish.
Anyway, I listen to some songs that are in languages I don't understand, and it seems very diffucult to find online translators that translate croatian, hungarian etc.
So, any LDers who can help out?
The lyrics I would like to know what they mean:
Vukovi Umiro Sami (I already know that the songs title is something about wolves dying alone)
Ébredj fel!
Lane Moje
Árny és fény
And, then there is this song that I don't know the name of, or what language it is sung in. I think it had been in eurovision song contest... Sounds like they sing "Kuko Kuko Daguzite"? It would be good just to know what language it is in.
I would be grateful if I just got help with any of these.

In truth I would say that English IS the wierdest language in europe, it's also the most difficult to learn.
Vukovi Umiru Sami - wolves die alone
Silence chains darkness like an anchor
The fear inside me slowly dies away
This love was just an apparition
This is not my time
A few more hours before the dawn
Anxiety outside as if there is a war
I put on my coat and go away
So as to forget everything
Ships drift away down the Danube
You worry no more about me
I am like leaves carried by the wind
Wolves die alone
Silence chains darkness like an anchor
The fear I feel slowly dies away
I put on my coat and go away
So as to forget everything

Of course it depends on your native language and also on personal preference, but English certainly isn't the most difficult european language. Actually it's the easiest language I know. Writing is a bit difficult since you can't know from the pronounciation (unlike spanish or french), and there are also quite a lot of synonymous words, but your easy grammar easily outweighs these disadvantages. You don't even have to adapt the verbs to the object!
Uhm sorry, bit off topic. And yes, I am back again, kinda.
greets tapir

hey dark
Just got back from Bolivia and, feeling a bit jetlagged, thought I might pay a visit to "good old LD4all". Of course languages have been quite an important topic to me over the last few months, so I had to contribute here.

I don't know if English is your first language, but if it isn't then you might be mistaken about some synonyms. English has borrowed words from both Germanic and Romance languages that look like they should be synonymous (and actually their dictionary entries might be identical), but will give very different meanings in context.

Haha, sorry. I actually think that english is wierd (at least the spelling) while german isn't very wierd. But, if I would have called english a wierd language in the first post, then all the english speakers would be here and say "I do!"
And thank you, Dark Matter.

Lane Moje (Half English, Half Serbian) (Dj Suzi)
by Zeljko Joksimovic
[ENGLISH]
Your name is on my lips.
Tonight is tender full of memories.
It´s all I have now.
But for the last time I´m feelin hold you in my arms
Say goodbye, Now I´m leaving.
I can´t stay another day.
I can´t share another feeling.
Love will tear us anyway.
Say goodbye, Now I´m leaving.
Save your tears oh don´t you cry.
All I take with me is greeting.
In the name of love goodbye.
[SERBIAN]
(nek' neko drugi kose ti ljubi, da tebe lakse prebolim)
Lane moje ovih dana (lane moje)
Vise i ne tugujem (lane moje)
Pitam samo da l' si sama
Ljude koje ne cujem
Lane moje nocas kreni (lane moje)
Nije vazno bilo s kim
Nadji nekog nalik meni
Da te barem ne volim
Da te vise ne volim
