It seems to me that in many countries we can hear a rumble of discontent, because of the tumble of the shares owing to the financial crisis.

Me parece que en muchos países se puede escuchar un rumor de descontento debido a la caída de las acciones debido a la crisis financiera.

As he watched the drunken patron of his humble bar bumble around looking for the bathroom, the owner grumbled a bit, but when the drunk fumbled with a door knob and then stumbled through the entrance to the basement and took a tumble causing a great rumble as the ancient staircase crumbled into a jumble on the floor, he mumbled to himself "thank god we have good insurance".

Mientras miraba al cliente borracho de su modesto bar andando a tropezones mientras buscaba el baño, el dueño se quejó a sí mismo un poco, pero cuando el borracho manoseó el pomo de una puerta y luego trastabilló por la entrada del desván y se cayó causando un gran retumbo mientras la escalera antigua se desmoronó en un embrollo en el suelo, se masculló "gracias a dios, tenemos buen seguro".

It is my humble opinion that considerate children would not tumble about so in the morning, making the whole house rumble so that it is impossible for me to sleep.

Es mi opinión modesta que los niños considerados no retozarían tanto por la mañana, haciendo la casa entera retumbar así que es imposible que duerma.

(I'm unsure of the proper verb tense for "retozar." Anyone?)
