"Life is too short"

Question

Vida es demasiada corta, a besito despacio, risa locamente, amor honradamente, y perdonar rápidamente.

Life is too short, kiss slowly, laugh insanely, love honestly, and forgive quickly.

And....

Das Leben ist zu kurz, auch Langsam zu küssen, für uns irrsinnig zu lachen, wirklich zu lieben, und schnell zu verzeihen.

Gracias a todos! =)

Very good, Kat! - sanlee, Mar 26, 2012

Answer 1

My suggestion: "La vida es demasiado corta: besar despacio, reír locamente (= reír sin control), amar honestamente (= con honestidad) y perdonar rápidamente (= con rapidez)."

Answer 2

Hi, Kat. For the English version, I would take out "to". When I read it, I understood it to say that life's too short "to do" those things, so do something else (in a nutshell, lol). I think that's the opposite of what you were trying to say. You may want to substitute "so" for "to"; or as Cordobesa did, replace it with a colon. I hope this makes sense, but if not let me know

Ah, thank you! Very good advice. :) - 00cdfbd9, Mar 26, 2012

Answer 3

I can help you translate the Spanish part only. laugh insanely, love honestly->reír alocadamente, amar honestamente

Thanks! It's okay. German is my native language so I'm just practicing a bit. Thanks! :) - 00cdfbd9, Mar 26, 2012
