Norwegian would be: “Bland eggeplommene og resten av sukkeret i en separat bolle i mixmasteren i ett minutt.”

Finnish version goes like this:
“Vatkaa jäljelle jäänyt sokeri ja munankeltuaiset erilisessä kulhossa sähkövatkaimella minuutin ajan.”

Russian:

В отдельной чашке сбейте яичные желтки с оставшимся сахаром одну минуту в электрическом миксере.

and french:
Battre pendant une minute les jaunes d’œuf et le reste du sucre dans un autre bol, avec un mélangeur électrique.

German:

In getrennter Schüssel schlagen Sie eine Minute lang, mit dem elektrischen Mixer, die Eigelbe mit dem restlichen Zucker auf.

In German:
Man verquirle das Eigelb mithilfe eines Elektromixers in einer gesonderten Schüssel eine Minute lang mit dem restlichen Zucker.

[edit: Sorry, I didn’t see your post, Nora. Wasn’t meant to be a suggestion for improvement – now you have two versions, Pieter]

Spanish:

En otro recipiente, usando la batidora eléctrica, bata durante un minuto las yemas de huevo con el azúcar restante.

Dutch:

Roer het eigeel met de resterende suiker in een aparte kom met een elektrische (staaf)mixer.

Slovak:

V samostatnej miske jednu minútu šľahajte elektrickým mixérom žĺtky so zvyšným cukrom.

Thank you very much all!

Italian:

Sbattete per un minuto con il frullatore i tuorli, insieme al resto dello zucchero, in una tazza a parte.

Danish:

I en separat skål piskes æggeblommerne sammen med resten af sukkeret i et minut, ved hjælp af en elektrisk håndmikser.

 Yiddish is technically a European language, right? ☺

און א באזונדערן שוסל, שלאג צאם די געליכלעך מיט די צוקעד מיט אן עלעקטראנישער מיש־מאשין.

—Joel

Well, Yiddish is spoken in every country, so thanks!

Swedish/Svenska

Vispa äggulorna i en separat skål tillsammans med resten av sockret i en minut med hjälp av en elvisp.

Claus/Denmark & John/Norway: Don’t you think the text refers to an el-pisker/elvisp rather than a håndmikser/mixmaster? Feel free to say something rude about swedes if I’m wrong.

Does Yiddish use the Hebrew script?

ChrisL

Hello Chris,

Yes it does:

Pieter

Thanks!

ChrisL

Don’t you think the text refers to an el-pisker/elvisp rather than a håndmikser/mixmaster?
“Mixmaster” is the slang for “elvisp” in Norwegian. Probably because there was a brand named “Mixmaster” when electric mixers was introduced? Great branding if that is the case. “Hjulvisp” and “visp” is what we call the none electric ones.
I think you overlooked that Claus wrote “elektrisk håndmikser”.

Feel free to say something rude about swedes if I’m wrong.
You know we call you Swedes “søta bror” (sweet/nice brother), no worries about any rudeness.

Basque:

Beste katilu batean, gainontzeko azukrearekin gorringoak irabiatu minutu batez, irabiagailu elektrikoa erabiliz.

Here’s a translation into LOL Cat ...

“I made you a cake, but I eated it”

http://icanhascheezburger.com/2007/01/15/i-made-you-a-cookie/

Here’s one into ’In soviet Russia...’ joke language...

“In Soviet Russia egg whisks you.”

“Here’s one into ’In soviet Russia...’ joke language...”

...or “yolk language”... (Sorry - waaay easy pun, but I just had to...)

Thanks again everybody!

In Czech:

V oddělené misce šlehejte žloutky se zbylým cukrem jednu minutu elektrickým mixérem.

In North Sami:

Seagut sierra bollus monnefiskadasaid ja sohkkara mii lea báhcán ovtta minuhta biebmomašiinnain.

Polish:

W oddzielnej misce mieszaj elektrycznym mikserem żółtka jajek z pozostałym cukrem przez jedną minutę.

In Portuguese (this is the Brasilian version - shouldn’t be too different in Portugal - they’d probably say “eléctrica”):

Em uma tigela à parte, bata as gemas dos ovos com o restante do açúcar durante um minuto, usando a batedeira elétrica.

Ronald Kyrmse

In Portuguese (from Portugal) like suggested by kyrmse :-)

Numa tigela à parte, bata as gemas dos ovos com o restante do açúcar durante um minuto, usando a batedeira eléctrica.

António Fonseca

Turkish:

Ayrı bir kapta, kalan şekerle yumurtanın sarısını bir dakika mikserle çırpın.

Hm, Florian Hardwig’s German sounds more German cooking book style than nora g’s.

Hungarian:
A tojássárgáját a maradék cukorral egy másik tálba tesszük, és elektromos habverővel egy percig verjük.

(I changed that to the first person plural formulation which is prevalent for cooking books in Hungary, though it does not sound quite “original Hungarian recipie” to me, as e.g. you probably wouldn’t add the time for such a simple task, nor the instruction for using an electric mixer (though I included these in the sentence above not to deviat much from yours and not to make it too short).

Thanks all! Does anyone speak Greek? :)

Pieter

I don’t speak it well enough to give you an accurate translation, Pieter. I wish I did.

ChrisL

Here you go :)

Σε διαφορετικο μπολ χτυπιστε για ενα λεπτο με το μιξερ τα ασπραδια ε την υπολυπη ζαχαρη.

Honestly, I am amazed by scope of this thread. How fun to participate in this global forum! I’m also feeling inadequate with my monoliguisticality.

 You mean your Americanness, right?
—Joel

Precisely. But it’s not that simple. My middle-America, not quite suburban, but on the edge of the metropolis, in one of those 1950’s ranch homes on a block with an alley and a basketball hoop on the garage childhood has a lot to do with it. And my brother had a paper route. I am seriously average.

Another Russian translation:

Поместите яичные желтки с оставшимся сахаром в отдельную чашку, и взбивайте на протяжении минуты электро-миксером.

Get Down Haley! I didn’t know you spoke Greek!

ChrisL

Ramie-should it not be measc instead of meascaigh?

Here it is in Serbian, courtesy of my wife:
“У посебној чинији електричним миксером мутите жуманце са остатком шећера један минут.”

I don’t speak Greek fluently, but my boyfriend is from Athens so I got him to do the words I didn’t know. :)

Irish:

I mbabhla ar leith, measc na buíocáin leis an siúcra atá fágtha ar feadh nóiméid amháin, ag baint úsáid as an meascthóir leictreach.

Thanks Lorcs for spotting that. Corrected now.

Well, Esperanto isn’t exactly my “native” language, but I’ve been speaking it since I was 14; so, far what it’s worth: ’En aparta bovlo, kirlu per elektra miksilo dum unu minuto la ovoflavaĵojn kun la restanta sukero.’ That gives you a j-circumflex, which I don’t think you’ll find in any other language (as far as I’m aware).

Bulgarian:)
В отделна купа разбъркай жълтъците с останалата захар за една минута използвайки електрически миксер

Thanks again my Typophile friends! :)

Pieter

Iceland somebody? :)

Pieter

Jason, where is the best place for the circumflex on lower case “h” — above the ascender or the hump?
(That’s an Esperanto accent, isn’t it?)

I’m so blown away by all the different languages everyone here speaks. :)

Eskimo someone?
:)

Pieter

In Canada’s eastern Arctic, it would be called Inuktitut. ;-)

I can’t do it, but one of my favourite cooking show presenters could — her show is done in Inuktitut, with English closed-captioning....

Nick—

Yes, that’s an Esperanto accent. The circumflex for hcircumflex should be above the ascender. At least that’s where I’ve always seen it, and that’s where I always put it, although I’m not aware of any authoritative rule about its placement. I’ve thought about putting it lower (especially when the ascender is above the capheight), but that just causes other problems, like illegibility, for one.

—Jason

Thanks Jason!

And then—centred above the ascender, or the whole letter width?
I would assume the ascender.

Nick,
The most current Adobe faces (see Arno) put the circumflex over the ascender. I assume they checked that out thoroughly with good sources.

ChrisL

Chris, I generally follow Adobe practice, but good though they are they’re not infallible, there is often more than one way to skin a cat, and it’s brilliant to be able to discuss this here first hand with an Esperanto-reading type designer!

I certainly agree with that, Nick. I was just chiming in that Adobe agreed with Jason on placement so 2 bases were covered.

ChrisL

In general, there’s not enough room to put the h-circumflex accent over the hump, but in a small-x-height face, light and wide, there would be.

Nick—

I center the circumflex over the whole letter (h) and that seems to be the general practice in Esperanto literature — although Arno Pro has it centered over the ascender. (The latter approach is more likely to cause spacing problems, I think.) As you said, Adobe is not infallible. The hcircumflex in Esperanto is the least used of the accented letters, and in fact there is a trend to substitute ’k’ for it if that does not cause confusion with other words. Of course, that’s beside the point; I think it’s worthwhile to design our diacritics to follow common usage in the respective languages as best we can, but that’s a whole other topic!

Hmmm, guess I’ll have to shift some circumflexes back :-)
