How do you say 'Hello' in your native language?
Hi,

I am working on an infographic for a client which is based on how to say 'Hello' in every European country.

I have searched Google for the answers, but some languages such as Belarusian, Greek and Ukrainian had a few different versions thrown up at me. I'd like to know if I have the correct translations.

10 seconds of your time to let me know if I am correct or to correct me would be much appreciated, thank you :)

Timshel
Hi!
I need help from someone who speaks Hebrew.
I would like to tattoo the word "timshel" for my 25th birthday (the story of this word comes from the novel "East of Eden"). Is this spelling good: תִּמְשָׁל ? Is it really means "thou mayest"? How it looks in Hebrew?

I would be very grateful for any help :)

Re: meaning of this word ?
Hi Sara,

I’ve only read English translations of Persian poems, and only those by the two poets whom you had recommended. (Molānā is better known by the name Rūmī in English.) Since I haven’t studied Persian, I can’t fully appreciate their brilliance.

Re: meaning of this word ?
Hi Sara,

some authors have a more “poetic” style than others. If this book was written in such a style, then the interpretation can vary for each reader.

Re: meaning of this word ?
Hi Sara,

the verb “blow” has many possible meanings. One of its meanings is “to make a sound as a result of being blown”, e.g. “The ships’ horns blew in the harbor”, but that meaning isn’t often used about children. In my view, the more likely meaning is “to be propelled by an air current”, since the same meaning also applies to “Past the tiny lives the children blew” — blowing past something strongly suggests being propelled by the wind, like fallen leaves in the autumn.
