Could you guys translate something for me into your native languages?
Hey :) I'm working in a hospital and we often have patients from other countries - not able to speak German or English -
I wanted to make a list of the questions we usually ask there in many different languages and thought.. maybe you guys could help me :)
Please Translate:
Hello, my name is ...
Good Morning / Afternoon / Evening / Night
Yes
No
Are you in pain?
Every language is fine / I'll make a List out of your answers <3
Hello, my name is..: Hola, mi nombres es...
Good morning/afternoon/evening/night: buenos días/ buenas tardes/ buenas noches
Yes: si
No: no
Are you in pain? : Estas con dolor?
Esto es español
@RamonaWinchester
Hello, my name is ... Hallo, mijn naam is...
Good Morning / Afternoon / Evening / Night Goedemorgen / Goedemiddag / Goedenavond / Goedenacht
Yes Ja
No Nee
Are you in pain? Heb je pijn? (informal) Heeft u pijn? (formal)
These are the Translations in Dutch :)

@RamonaWinchester Hello! Sure! Why not?

Good Morning / Afternoon / Evening / Night - Buenos días / Buenas tardes / Buenas noches
Yes - Sí.
No - No.
Are you in pain? - Te duele?

Tagalog!
Hello, my name is ... = (There is no direct translation for "hello", so I just replaced it with "how are you?") Kumusta? Ang pangalan ko ay...
Good Morning / Afternoon / Evening / Night = Magandang umaga / Magandang hapon / Magandang gabi / Magandang gabi
Yes = Opo (when conversing with someone older), Oo (for conversing with people your age or younger)
No = Hindi po (talking to someone older), Hindi (talking to someone your age or younger)
Are you in pain? = May nararamdaman po ba kayong sakit? (talking to someone older), May nararamdaman ka bang sakit? (same age or younger)
Note: You pretty much just add "po" to the end of every greeting when talking to someone older.
Ex: Good evening = Magandang gabi po
(Note that it doesn't always go to the end of the sentence. Ex. My name is _____. Ang pangalan ko po ay _____. The sentence is still correct if you add "po" at the end, but if flows more naturally after the word "pangalan".)

Classic Arabic (Modern Standard Arabic)
English -- Arabic -- pronouciation (as close to the sound as I could think of)
Hello -- مرحبا -- Marhabaan // Mar - as in German 'markt' ha - as in German 'haben' baan - as in German 'Bahn'
How are you? -- كيف حالك؟ -- Kayf halik? // Kayf - as English 'leaf' but with a 'k' instead of 'l' ha - as in German 'haben' lik - as British English 'luck'
Good morning -- صباح الخير -- Sabah alkhair // Sa - as in German 'sagen' bah - as in German 'Bahn' al - as in German 'alle' kh - sharp 'g' as in English/Scottish 'loch' (Loch Ness) air - as in German 'irgendwo'
Good evening -- مساء الخير -- Masa alkhair // Ma - as in German 'Mann' sa - as in German 'sagen' al - as in German 'alle' kh - sharp 'g' as in English/Scottish 'loch' (Loch Ness) air - as in German 'irgendwo'
Yes -- نعم -- Naam // Naam - as in German 'Name' (Say German 'Name' without pronouncing the 'e' at the end)
No -- لا -- La // La - as in German 'Lampe'
Are you in pain? -- هل تشعر بالألم؟ -- Hal tashur bilalam? // Hal - as in English 'Hello' ta - as in English 'tennis' sh - as in English 'shed' ur - as in German 'Uruguay' (rolling 'r') bil - as in German 'Pille' but with a 'b' instead of 'p' and without pronouncing the 'e' at the end a - as in English/German 'echo' lam - as in English/German 'lemming'
I really hope this helps. I tried my best to find corresponding sounds to help pronouciate the words.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
I also speak Dutch but I saw you already have those :)
@StarJourney thanks a lot this is very helpful <3
@RamonaWinchester you're welcome :)
