I mean, we have the same dictionaries and everything. In English sometimes words are spelt a different way in the UK and the US. We don't have that. It's just two or three words which are different. And some colloquial words. Hmm, it is different with Switzerland. They use a lot of words we don't use. Lin, I'm ignoring that comment of yours.

Lin, ich kenne nichts, das so schön ist wie du!
Ich könnte tagelang von dir erzählen I could talk about you for days ohne deinen namen auch nur einmal zu erwähnen without mentioning your name just once unter Schmerzen oder unter Tränen With pain and with tears würde dein Name als meine Linderung dienen Would your name be my healing (not really healing, abatement says the dictionary) jede deiner Bewegungen sind erstrebenswert All of your movements are desirable und jede Stunde mit dir ist so lebenswert And each hour with you is so worth living Heheh, that's just for you.

Danke, Lai! Let me know if you ever need a translation from English to...errr...English.
Du är en ganska märklig person, Grey! Quoting such a long post. Å, och på dina sidor kan jag se dina bilder. De är mycket fina! Varför bor din syster i Canberra? Det är inte så intressant, tror jag. |

Well, it's the least I can do for all you have done for me. I would still say -loose- if it wasn't for you. Hehehe.

Now that I see all these titles together it's actually strange that the Dutch one seems to be the only one that isn't a straight translation of 'Lord of the Rings'. I say 'seem' because I can't be sure of the exact meaning of the swedish and finnish because 1) I don't know those languages and 2) can't compare them to other languages to get at their meaning.
