EN-FR constable of a castle
|
| |
This time, the question reads: "Who was in charge of a castle if the lord or his lady weren't home?". The answer is "a constable". I think the French equivalent is "intendant", and I've found a definition in a Lexique m di val which seems to confirm this: "Intendant: R gisseur d'un grand domaine".... more »

EN-FR Fastest orbiting planet
|
| |
Hello, I'm translating a quiz and one of the questions is: "What is the fastest orbiting planet in our solar system?" (answer is Mercury): Is it correct to translate this simply as "Quelle est la planète la plus rapide de notre système solaire?"?

(From Nietzsche)... more »

Spanish - Hottest trend ?
|

WzM Nietzsche

Große Dinge verlangen, daß man von ihnen schweigt oder groß redet: groß, das heißt cynisch und mit Unschuld. Magnificent things demand that we speak of them magnificently, that is to say, cynically and without shame, — or be silent.
