Original Low Saxon: http://www.fln.vcu.edu/grimm/fischer.html English translation: http://www.fln.vcu.edu/grimm/fischer_e.html High German translation: http://www.fln.vcu.edu/grimm/fischer_hd.html Scots translation: http://www.scots-online.org/reader/grimm.htm American cultural translation: http://www.eldrbarry.net/rabb/folk/fshwfe.htm There's a Russian version of the story by Pushkin, but I don't have a link to it. Between all of those one ought to be able to make out what's going on. For extra thrills, try translating from a language you don't know. (Padraic is the expert at this, of course!) -- What is the sound of Perl? Is it not the John Cowan sound of a [Ww]all that people have stopped jcowan@reutershealth.com banging their head against? --Larry http://www.ccil.org/~cowan
