Kinder Surprise Warning

Post by Ear of the Sphinx »

That's how I started with comparative linguistics. :-)

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/User:Palk ... toy_hazard

Image

:eng: English
Warning, read and keep:
Toy not suitable for children under 3 years.
Small parts might be swallowed or inhaled.


And my poor translation to Esperanto done in 2009:

:epo: Esperanto

Atento! Legu kaj gardu:

Code: Select all

atent-o leg -u   kaj gard-u
warn -n read-imp and guard-imp
Warning! Read and guard:

La ludilo ne estas dediĉita al infanoj pli junaj ol tri jaraj.

Code: Select all

la  lud -il  -o ne  est-as   dedicx  -it       -a   al infan-o-j  pli  jun  -a  -j  ol   tri   jar -a  -j
the play-tool-n not be -pres dedicate-past.pass-adj to child-n-pl more young-adj-pl than three year-adj-pl
The toy is not dedicated for children younger than three-year-old.

Malgrandaj partoj povas esti inhalotaj aǔ englutotaj.

Code: Select all

mal-grand-a  -j  part-o-j  pov-as   est-i inhal -ot      -a  -j  aux en-glut   -ot      -a  -j
opp-big  -adj-pl part-n-pl can-pres be -v inhale-fut.pass-adj-pl or  in-swallow-fut.pass-adj-pl
Small parts can be about to be inhaled or swallowed.

And two nooblangs made few years ago:
(no glosses as they are mixes of some Germanic words and phrases)

:con: Erhcil / Argel
Etyng! Lyst yn xavarnest:
Dette ertikol yst nye vore kends undyr 3 (tray) aer.


:con: Synix / Sunic
Wányng! Láb yn xé bvarn:
disre artkól est nèì xè kìends òndir 3 (tréj) ìaàr.
Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd.

The warning is in Kazakh, Georgian, and Armenian, but not in Russian... Good job somehow avoiding the most spoken language in Eastern Europe, Ferrero :roll:

:rus:
Внимание, прочитать и сохранить:
Не для детей младше 3 (трех) лет.

Yep. If you'll notice, all the languages are in alphabetical order. Russian (RU) would therefore be on the other side.

Or, in the vernacular:

In either case:

Pay attention! Read and keep:

I like how they skip certain parts in some languages :P

:nor: (Nn)
ÅTVARING, les og tak vare på:
Leika er ikkje for born under 3 år.
Smådelar kan setja seg fast i nase eller hals.


Warning: read and take care of:
Toy-the is not for children under 3 years.
Small-parts can/may put themselves stuck in nose or throat.

I will come back and add other languages ... this one took longer than expected and I have a subway to catch!

[+1] Quick 'n' dirty Comparative Linguistics, indeed - HUZZAH :!:

Also Playmobil, LEGO instructions, food handling instructions (frozen shrimp and Icelandic IQF haddock especially had multi-lingual food-handling instructions/warnings), and trilingual/quinquelingual brochures from the Knoxville World's Fair were my first "textbooks" to those Dark Arts. [B)]
