Someone has assembled a book of 300 translations of the Four Questions. They include constructed languages, including "Klingon, Hebrew Semaphore, Hebrew Morse Code, Shakespearean, Tolkien's Elvish, Lawyerese and Valley Girl!"

So, anyone feel up to translating the "Mah Nishtanah" into Chaotian?

Chaotian is missing a bunch of words - like "night" and "different". I might be able to take a stab at some of them in Rikchik though.

I was just thinking something very similar.

I'm thinking I may have to get a copy of this book for [personal profile] osewalrus's parents, who have a tradition of saying Mah Nishtanah in as many languages as people can bring to the table.

"Because of what, the night including now, to all nights, to all nights, is not similar?"
