Hello all,

I need your help with a peice of art I am working on. Central to the piece is the Japanese word Ganbura. I am told Ganbura means something akin to never giving up even when there is no chance of winning (no this has nothing to do with the World Cup :D).

So, I need all our non USC VJers and/or their SOs to help me. Please post how you would convey this concept in your mother tongue...if it takes several words to convey...ok, no problem.

It does not have to be 100% exact - for example I like how Italians so FORZA. I plan to use that as well.

So...please help me. I need to complete the project in about 3 weeks.

THANKS in advance for all your help.

In Esperanto we say 'persistado'.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

Elizabeth are you sure you have the right spelling for Ganbura....could it be Ganbare???? as I've tried looking for this word on ASK which is formally ask jeeves and it gives me an alternative word for it????

Janice

It could be wrong. The person who said it to me is half Japanese - US born and raised. So she definitely could have made a mistake. I will ask again.

I believe it should be "ganbare" (pronounced as "gun"-"baa"- "ray"). Well, Indonesian for that will be "maju terus pantang mundur" or something like that... :D

"Ganbaru" is the infinitive form of the verb. "Ganbare" is what you would actually shout out when watching a game. You could shout out "Tsemppiä!" in my native tongue Finnish :) It has the exact same meaning as the Japanese word.

In Arabic, you can say:

"Laa ya'sa ma3 al 7ya7, wala 7yata ma3 al ya's"

Sort of translates to "There's no giving up in life, and no life in giving up."
