This thread is part of the Translator playground: a place for translators to have fun, to network, to learn, and to hone their translation or linguistic skills. See the announcement here.

Need a quick break from work? In this forum translators and language professionals can share quotes about translation, tongue twisters and word plays, translation challenges, etc.

All are welcome to participate and to add new items to this and the other areas of the Translator playground; have fun with it! If you need help or would like to propose an addition to the Translator playground, contact site staff through the online support system.


L'écrou a la berlue,
brait et se terre sous la couverture.
L'écrou va de l'avant et ri
- ressorts,
c'est tout.

The positive spots pink elephants,
braying, tucking away under the slab.
The positive peers laughing
- springs,
that's all.

*****************

Now, can you come up with a German translation to match the two?
