Hola, Amigos!
Today, we are going to explore different languages. First, pick a
word. I'm going to pick bird.
Then, pick a few languages. They can be real or made up. I'm going to
do Spanish, Elvish, Irish Gaelic, Russian, and Romanian.
Next, translate the work into each of the languages.
English: Bird
Spanish: Pareja (pronounced "pah-ray-ha")
Elvish: Aew (sorry, can't find a pronunciation)
Irish Gaelic: éan (pronounced "ain"-rhymes with "rain")
Irish Gaelic: éan (pronounced "ain"-rhymes with "rain")
Russian: птица (pronounced "ptitsa")
Romanian: pasăre (pronounced "PAS-ah-ray")
What sounds the most smooth? Rough? Air-y? Flow-y? Why? How is this
useful in writing, or even real life?
