Totally Tuesday around here.

First up, for those of you who've wondered what it's like to live with my cats, here's a video link

Comments

Los muertos están despertando/andando! Huya para su vida!
He sido inficionado. Disparame, por favor.
No estoy inficionado. No me dispara, por favor.

I'm pretty sure these are correct for Spanish.

[sheistheweather]

Sentences with ! will of course require an upside down ! at the beginning.

[sheistheweather]

I bet Yiddish would also be useful. I don't speak it; I'm sure someone on Seanan's list does.

Russian:
Мертвые идут! Бежите для вашей жизни!
Я заражен/заражена. Стреляйте в меня, пожалуйста.
Я не заражен/заражена. Не стреляйте в меня, пожалуйста.

French:
Les morts revivent! Courez pour votre vie!
J'ai été infecté. Tirez-moi s'il vous plaît.
Je n'ai pas été infecté. Ne me tirez pas s'il vous plaît.

(I'll give you pronunciation on the phone or when I see you, if you want.) :)

"Ne tirez pas, s'il vous plaît! Je n'ai pas été infecté." Isn't an exact translation, but does start with the all important, "Don't shoot, please!" and then follows with the "I'm not infected." For if you're in more of a rush :)

...correction contributed by Frank Hayes: the French idiom in place of "Run for your life!" would more likely be "Sauve qui peut!"

(But I can't edit this comment now that it's been replied to.)

[seanan_mcguire]

Oh, language. I love you so.

aww kitties 4 teh win :) I know a little bit of spanish. I don't know the word for infected but "No estoy inferma/o" (I am not sick the "a" is female the "o" is male) and "Estoy inferma/o" (I am sick) and I know "Muertame" is the spanish command phrase for "kill me" That's all I got.

[sheistheweather]

It would me "mátame", actually. You are correct about pointing out masculine/feminine, though. I forgot that part.

[pyre006]

Oh, thanks!

[sheistheweather]

:D Teamwork! Hurrah!

THE CUTE YAWNS!

(My kid's going, "That was cute! That was very cute.")

[seanan_mcguire]

They like showing off their many, many fierce sharp teeth.

I need to trade kitty videos - so that's what blue looks like? I may have a blue tortie - stay tuned.

"Die Toten sind Aufstehen und Gehen! Lauf um dein Leben!" (I've modded that a bit - rising/walking became rising AND walking.)
"Ich bin infiziert. Bitte erschießen Sie mich."
"Ich bin nicht infiziert. Bitte nicht auf mich schießen."

I used a little Google-fu to make sure I spelled everything right, but reading this makes me giggle a bit. And will probably mess up my tenses for the rest of my posting day. But. "Please have shoot me. Please not of me shooting." Giggle.

Tell Jennifer I still think I was a jerk and I owe her shoes and a favor. Maybe more than that.

[madfilkentist]

"Sind Aufstehen" isn't right, is it?

Here are my attempts. I'm not a native German speaker.

"Die Toten erstehen auf! Lauft um ihr Leben!" (I'm assuming plural "you," otherwise "Lauf um dein Leben.")

"Ich bin angesteckt geworden. Bitte erschießen Sie mich."

"Ich bin nicht angesteckt. Bitte erschießen Sie mich nicht."

[science_vixen]

Now my German isn't stellar. I don't visit there every week. But in most german movie translations I see, they seem to like "die Toten sind aufgewacht" meaning "The dead woke up".

[seanan_mcguire]

AWESOME.

And shall do.
