To my fans who speak different languages around the world:

I am attempting to write a little song in many languages and i need your help. The song is about communication and love... of course!

If you're willing, please send back to me the following phrases translated, along with where you're from. If you speak a "picture" language, like Japanese, it would be great if you could write the phonetic version as well as the picture version. (and if you have any tips of pronunciation, that would help me too!!)

1. CAN YOU HEAR ME?

2. HOLD ME

3. TOUCH ME

4. SPEAK TO ME

5. I LOVE YOU


Thanks! I love you guys...


xxLenka.

Hey Lenka,

I am from Germany so here is the german version of the phrases:

1) (If it's about the volume of your voice it's) Kannst du mich hören? (or if it's about communication use) Verstehst du mich?
2) Halt mich fest
3) Berühr mich (or a little bit more vulgarly) Fass mich an
4) Sprich mit mir
5) Ich liebe dich

Well, that it. Hope that will help.

If you want to know how its pronounced please contact me. Not sure if some words can be written phonetic in english, because i don't know you have the sound for it. I'm sure we can figure something out for that.

4. Háblame

5. Te amo


Ok Hold me in Spanish is a tricky one cause you have a few ways in saying it depending on what it is your trying to get across! Some one else wrote on here translating Hold Me as Agárrame which is grab me! i put abrazame because it seems to me your tying to say hold me in your arms hug me?? So abrazme is more what your trying to say other than just saying grab me lol which is Agárrame which sounds wrong.

In the official language of Love from Enrico Caruso to Patrizio Buanne, Italian (the language of my parents) I gladly, lovingly and tender heartedly induct you officially into the hallowed language of love with the following translation...

Uno, Sento la voce del tuo amore, con perfetta chiarezza.
Due, Tienimi con dolcezza.
Tre, Per sentire la tua soffice carezze.
Quattro, Parliamo di amore, con amore.
Cinque, Ti amo con molta tenerezza.

Please avoid the robotic programmatic translations of Babel Fish, and other Internet algorythmic interpreters, it will turn true profound smouldering passion and dizzying anticipatory feeling into something resembling the garish hurried words of a torrid night in 'Hotel Californication'.


With affection,

Bravid Valour

(A loyal fan with a fastidious, yet steady 'eye for detail' and beauty.)

Hey Lenka!

BOLD letters stay for accents of the words themselves
Italic words mark the intonation word, while you pronounce the sentence.

Of course, intonation may differ due to the context situation you use them in.(I highlighted the words as an imperative(as they are now)

Hope this translation will help you in writing your song!
Good luck!

Anna
