Wentworth International - because there are too many languages to just use English

Welcome to the Wentworth International Thread!

I figured there are so many foreign people here (I'm not even English myself) and so many languages, that's why I created this thread. It is about translating different sentences about Wentworth into another language. That way we all learn something extra and I hope we get closer together.

I will start with an easy sentence:
Wentworth has beautiful eyes.
German: Wentworth hat schoene Augen.
Italian: Wentworth ha degli occhi bellissimi.
Norwegian: Wentworth har vakre øyne.

Wentworth is a very good looking man.
Spanish: Wentworth es un hombre muy bello.
German: Went sieht sehr gut aus. / Wentworth ist ein sehr gutaussehender Mann.
Norwegian: Wentworth er en veldig kjekk mann.

Wentworth is very well educated.
Spanish: Wentworth es bien educado.
German: Went ist sehr gebildet.
Norwegian: Wentworth er veldig høyt utdannet.

Now somebody else has to either translate this sentence into yet another language than German or find another sentence they want to have translated. I will try and add all the new translations to the opening post so that we always are up-to-date.

That's an interesting idea.. Unfortunately I only know English and we've already bastardized that enough in the Wentyisms thead. So besides drooling over how fantastic other languages sound, I don't have much of value to add here.

You could add sentences you would like to have translated!

Where do you want me to put this in the board guide? I was leaning toward the arts section because to me it's more about appreciating other languages, rather than Went himself [though the phrases are related to him..] but I can move it whereever.

Ahm, you can put it in the arts section I think.... Or maybe, is there a possibility of putting it in a game thread, because somehow it is a game thread... or the languages category... you see, you better not ask me

Does this belong together in your post? Or is the translation meant for the sentence above and this is the next sentence suggestion?

Yes, it belongs together. It's the translation.

Oh wait, was I supposed to still keep translating the sentence you first started with?

No that's alright, you either translate the sentence before or you suggest a new sentence...

Alright, it's done. Okay, everyone can translate any sentence in the opening post into another language or suggest a new one! I will change that rule tomorrow, too tired right now...
