Hello there, If'n it is possible I would like a translation of "Stupid Human" from English to any other language that you fine people know in this most wondrous forum. If you know languages that have different characters than the standard "English" characters please use them along with it in normal type. Yes, I know I am confusing, but never fear; for you are not the only one.
Thank you.
Thank you, and what language is that?
It's an Indo-European language, Baltic branch.
Does Miss Letty speak Lettish, M.A.?
I'll lett that one alone, Francis.
Stupide humain - French
Stupido umano - Italian
Estúpido humano - Spanish, Portuguese.
Dummer Mensch - German
Oh wow, that made my day better.
Thank you all for the amusment and the translations
I had to balt . . . er, balk, at MA's comments.
Amercian: Republican
Hloupý clovek - Czech (c and e in clovek should be with an accent, which doesn't work here - a little hook or v above the letter)
or shorter:
Hlupák
Blbec (the most common, slightly vulgar)
"Dummer Mensch" in German is a correct tranlation. But if you want to use it to insult somebody you could say:
Dummkopf (stupid head)
Blödmann (silly man)
.... I'm sure there are many other words, but I can't think of any right now.
Btw. these are pretty moderate insults, so nothing you'd have to censor on TV

Actually, in Portuguese you should say: Humano estúpido
But it would sound very funny, more like a sci-fi sentence of an extraterrestrial being.
Amadán (pronounced om-a-dawn) - Gaelic (Irish).
