    Default What is the correct write "Enron hides among us;it must be vanquished" in the following languages

    Text: "Enron hides among us; it must be vanquished"
    Latin
    Gaelic
    Any other language, but my primary concern is with the first 2

    I know this is strange but I want to make a cool sounding yet somewhat improvisational motto for the rebirth of my old bf2 gaming clan

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    "Enron hides among us."

    Dutch: Enron bevindt zich onder ons.

    A random translator says this:
    Hides among us = Exuviate inter nos

    That should be latin.

    I doubt you will get a perfect Gaelic translation.

    What kind of Gaelic you looking for? (Irish, Scottish or Celtic)

    Irish

    I was going to use an online translator but I figured since so many people on these forums know obscure languages, I might as well see if I can get one that is more accurate

    Enron latescit inter nos, pereundum = Enron hides among us, it must be destroyed.

    Well you out of luck on the Irish.

    There are only a dozen Irish members here and none of us are fluent.

    And you'll never translate an English phrase into Irish exactly.

    My effort.

    Déanann Enron ag folaigh sé féin i measc muid.

    It means.

    Déanann----Enron--ag folaigh---sé féin--i measc-- muid
    (Does be) (Enron) (concealing) (himself) (among) (us)

    The first half is ok, I think, spelling might be off but the sentence is grammatically correct.

    But the second half I'm not so sure, it's word for word translation, so the grammar is probably off.

    But this is the closest you'll get here.

    Thanks , I don't expect it to be perfect, I am actually really surprised that someone who can speak Gaelic actually happened to find this post and was able to translate what I said, seems like that would be highly statistically improbable.

    Enron is the most corrupt American corporation in recent history (though in current economic crisis I'm sure we will see worse, im pondering changing it to Blackwater though) basically they were an energy trading company that just pretended they were doing well so that their stocks would go up, when eventually they collapsed all their workers and investors ended up losing everything while the executives walked away with fortunes, and of course it was tied in with Bush.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enron

    Also, just out of curiosity would this inspire you/make you curious about joining a gaming clan, just wondering what thoughts my little banner calls to mind. Suggestions?

    It is pretty amazing, I wonder how many people in this world can actually speak Gaelic

    Very few fluently. In Ireland I would say about 5000 speak it fluently. And I always hate it in school!

    It's way more than that.

    About 500,000 speak it regularly.

    And about 50,00 are native speakers.

    Now seeing as Irish is compulsory, there are many more second language speakers.

    We all do.

    It's what binds all Irish people, whatever creed or colour.

    Well thats good I would have thought the number of Gaelic speakers would be declining.

    I always wanted to learn it, it seems like an interesting language but being in Texas there are not many opportunities to learn it unfortunately.

    Ah now Cu Chulainn, speak for yourself.

    Tá Enron i bhfolach inár measc: Ní mór é a chloí.
