Tá sé an-simplí, ach ní déarfaidh mé an freagra mar tá beagan Gaelige agam. (Bhí an teideal sa an triú líne)

Oh no, I just know italian, english and a bit of french, but there are no similarities with hungarian. I just compare what Rai writes with some damo lyrics
But I like languages a lot, they fascinate me. I also love riddles and sometimes I try to write some (in italian, of course). By the way, the latest song should be Cross-eyed bear... (but ehmmm... I haven't even ever listened to it... just looked at the lyrics... ) Anyway, if I am right, "change" must be something with "változ" in... is that right?

languages are fun, I can't get enough of them... i know Hungarian, English, some French, Catalan and Irish, a little Swahili and will start Spanish soon
Both are correct. The song was the Cross-Eyed Bear and 'változni' means 'to change' The next one: Hát, így esett, ont ahogy mondtad Az élet könnyen megy nekem legtöbbször Hát, így esett, arövidebb történet nincs szerelem, nincs dicsőség nincs hős az ő egén

Uhm... if it is the one I am guessing, that's easy... come on, don't leave everything to me!
How do you happen to know Swahili? I've got a cousin who lived in Kenya and can talk it, but I don't know a word of it

Hello, Tinkabell74... Northern Germany, hmmm. It must be pretty nice, I've never been there, though. The only German city I've been to(not counting the time when I was very small, because I don't remember much) is Munich.

Yep, I'm well acquainted with the distances... I suppose, you don't understand a word of what those weird people speak in the South

Portuguese is a funny thing... It is the most beautiful language when sung (just listen to some Madredeus, and you'll know what I'm talking about) but it s and almost slavic when spoken

You are right... actually, the fact that I love portuguese (and brazilian) music is the main reason for I want to learn it

Yes, they now how to sing... Have you ever heard Madredeus? I saw them live recently and was blown away. I've also contemplated for a while on learning Portuguese, but it seems that I'll start Spanish instead. Gabriel García Márquez is a serious argument for learning Castellá I'd love to learn to play some Portuguese songs on my mandolin, though.

I am a fado lover too! Do you play mandolin? I sometimes accompany an old mandolinist of my village and I would like to learn that too I guess there are too many things I'd like to learn BTW, since no one else is trying, I bet your last translation was The blower's daughter

It is Blower's Daughter... I'll translate another one shortly, but not now.
I wouldn't say that I play mandolin, I have one and I'm trying to make a continuous sequence of sounds with it... I only know some old Irish tunes, like 'Fainne Geal an Lae' and 'Ar Eirinn Ní Neosfhainn Cé Hí', but not much more... I'd love to get someone who could actually teach me to play it the Portuguese way, but there aren't too many such people in Hungary. To tell the truth, I'm a bit of an instrument-addict, I often get a strong urge to get one, and then there's no going back... I now have a guitar, a mandolin, a tin whistle, an irish flute and a chinese bamboo flute, and I have set my eyes upon the uillean pipes and the viola da gamba and the accordeon, but fortunately the first two are pretty hard to get and are really expensive, but the last...

ahahahah it's just the same for me! I play mostly guitar but I am always attracted by other instruments... during time I tried playing clarinet, bass, drums, flugelhorn, tuba and harmonica, but I'd love to play much more. One I'd really love is the hurdy-gurdy, but it is a very hard one to get and, above all, to find a teacher for But I met once a Czech musician who plays it so fine and then I fell in love with it

Hurdy-Gurdy? We have it here in Hungary, but I did not get into any contact with it (yet). I'm altogether more into woodwinds, and probably the least appealing are the drums, but since I started listening Kíla, the tide is turning...

Latin music is great... Its funny, though, that most latin music is Caribbean or South/Middle-American while I think the Iberian stuff is not worse, if not better. In my view, for example a fandango beats any salsa under all circumstances...

Unfortunately I'm not much expert about Iberian music, I just studied a little flamenco once, which was quite complex. Amazing indeed!

Finally, I had time to make the next transcript, so merry guessing!
Ez nem történt volna meg, ha elkapom a gépem. Ott lettem volna, mikor azt mondták, patkány vagyok a magtárban Ebben a nagy félrértésben most engem értenek félre Azt hiszem, valaki ki akar velem baszni és alám akar gyújtani.

Wow... thanks, but it almost seems I am the only one left to play!
Anyway, I think the last one was harder than the others, it made me think much!

I think I'm running out of songs which I know and which are not blatantly easy, like Me my Yoke and I. What a shame.
