Darling,

Might I ask you for a favor?  How would I say this in German?

"Please speak or clap your paws if you are intelligent, or I will kill and eat you"

Also, do you know anyone who speaks Norwegian?

Dear one,

You say:

Bitte sprechen Sie oder klatschen Sie Ihre Pfoten, wenn Sie intelligent sind, oder ich werde töten und werde Sie essen.

...why do we need to know this? I am curious.

Love,

Hans

Moonblossom,

Some rats are German or Norwegian. The Norwegian are much more common, but it is not impossible to run across a wild German rat. So I still need to find someone to translate it into Norwegian, but at least now I've got a little more covered.

Thankyou very much!

But do rats have the intelligence to understand what you are saying to them, regardless of their nationality?

Perhaps you could check an internet translator for Norwegian.

Dear,

The worry is that they do have the intelligence. I don't want to eat a smart rat.

Did you know some vampires can turn into a horde of rats? It is very worrying.

Do you need anythin' in French?

[totheb0ne]

Oh, no. Are there French rats too?!

[deadwhitemale]

I dunno, mister Metody, but I sorta take this view-- if they turn into a form likely to be et by things such as cats or dogs or Vietnamese, then they assume all risks of bein' et by other stuff too, an' got no right to complain.

That is a good point, but...still. Even if it's their own fool fault, I would feel terrible if I hurt someone myself.
