Hi,

a somewhat unusual request - I´d be a very happy TA if you could help me out.
We are travelling to Ko Samui in Thailand again in February and a good friend of ours is doing his birthday party there this year. On the beach in Samui it´s pretty multi-national, and as we had (and will have...) some pretty hard parties over there, we are making a sign, that he can wear around his neck when about to pass out.

So it´s more of a joke than serious stuff, but nevertheless, would be cool if you could help out.

I am looking for a translation of the text below into:

German=>Polish
German=>Dutch
German=>French
German=>Spanish


Here´s an English translation, below that the German original. Don´t worry about "party HQ", it´s an internal joke
Btw, we do already have an translation into Thai with Thai character set, so those other four languages would really be cool on top.

"Hello,
my name is xxx.
If you are reading these lines I might not be able to respond and am likely disoriented.
Please take me to party HQ of xxx at:
Reward guaranteed!"

"Hallo,
mein Name ist xxx.
Wenn Sie diese Zeilen lesen, bin ich leider nicht mehr ansprechbar und voraussichtlich orientierungslos.

Bitte bringen Sie mich zum Partei-Hauptquartier der xxx:

Finderlohn garantiert!"

Thank you

NetX

PS: I know, I could have posted in the regional forums but didn´t want to start four threads there for it - pls help

To Dutch:

"Hallo,

mijn naam is xxx.
Wanneer je deze regels leest ben ik helaas niet meer aanspreekbaar en waarschijnlijk gedesorienteerd.

Brengt U mij a.u.b. naar het party-hoofdkwartier van xxx op:

Vindersloon gegarandeerd!"

There is no regional for Poland, though we did try to push it

Polish:

Dzien dobry (or doby wieczor depending on what time of day)
Nazywam sie xxx.
Jak przeczytasz te slowa, to moze nie bede mogl odpisac bo nie bardzo umiem rozmawiac, i nie wiem o co chodzi.

Prosze mnie przyprowadzic na zabawe HQ z xxx

Nagroda gwarentowane

very cool !

Thanks alot!

the polish translation: which one is better? the first or the second ? it´s pretty much "gibberish" to me, I´m lucky enough to copy and paste it into my DTP program

Now I only need a french translation, I guess for that one I´ll invade the France-Local-Forum

Again, thanks for that REALLY quick help - the sign is gonna be a blast and good enough for some laughs on his birthday night, I guess.

I promise to order some Happy-Hour-Cocktails to honour you, while sitting in the sun, smoking....

i can give you lithuanian translation tho i'm almost sure that no one would respond to it, it would prelong the list

sveiki,
mano vardas xxx
jei skaitai shias eilutes, ash greichiausiai negaliu atsakyt, nes esu totaliai girtas ir be orientacijos.
prashau, nuneshk mane i tuso vadaviete, kuri yra xxx.
garantuotas atlyginimas.

feel free to use it or not

They seem equally good to me. Just be careful to switch your ie window to central european encoding in order to see al the characters in a right way

Ok for the French one it would look something like :

Allo,

Mon nom est xxx.
Si vous êtes en train de lire ces lignes, c'est probablement que je ne suis plus capable de vous répondre et que je suis désorienté.
Prière de me conduire au party HQ de xxx au :

Récompense garantie!

Well, if you want a long lists of translations, I can throw in a croatian one.

"Hello,
my name is xxx.
If you are reading these lines I might not be able to respond and am likely disoriented.
Please take me to party HQ of xxx at:
Reward guaranteed!"

"Zdravo,
zovem se xxx.
Ako ovo èitaš možda ti neæu moæi odgovoriti i vjerojatno sam dezorjentiran.
Molim te da me odvedeš u glavni stožer zabave xxx u:
Nagrada garantirana!"

to display characters correctly: view->encoding->central european (windows)
