Hello, Deirdre, welcome also from me!

I think Saucepan-man didn't mean what he wrote:" ...you should also give the English translation of the quote" (that's what the guessers have to find out) but look at what Le petit Choux, who started the thread, said at the beginning:

Quote:
Basically, you find a quote and translate it literally into another language. Not from the book in, say, german, but you must translate it yourself. Any language will do, but if they use a different alphabet (eg. Cyrillic) then try to use latin letters for the sounds in the other alphabet. Dead languages also count.
