1) Et pecūniam et corōnās poētīs dōnābis.
2) Et pecūniā et corōnīs poētās dōnābis.
I can hardly work out how they differ from each other. I translated the first as "You will give the poets both punishment and wreaths", but the translation of the second one seems to be "You will present the poets with both punishment and wreaths". But what on earth is the difference between the two?

I've seen this sentence (I'm pretty sure it's German) and I can't translate it on an Internet translator.

Can someone please tell me what it says?

A little while ago, I simply asked for someone to translate a message that I intend on sending to a friend in German. I recieved 2 replies; one from someone who genuinely wished to help (Thank you "Knobby025"!!) and the other from someone named "Knock N" who obviously intended me to send something insulting to my friend by falsely translating my message!! Question; Why would you do that? If you did not sincerely wish to help, why bother answering my question?? (I don't know who you are "Knock N" but, you are obviously NOT a very nice person!!)
Can anyone translate what this person wrote for me??

Auch deutsche Leute sind so dumm. Verlierer! Verlierer! Verlierer! Moron und Idiot! Sie essen auspumpen! Verlierer! Ihr Freund... Sheila

My co-workers are all from central-america.
They dont' speak much english, and they commonly make comments in spanish to me and my co's.
99% of the time, they are joking around.
I have a vague idea of what they are saying, but I would like to know EXACTLY what they're saying.

I am pretty sure the verb "chichar" means to have sex (roughly translated as to f--k). Am I correct?

Well they frequently make comments like (i don't know the spelling) "Chici-chici para mi?" and "Chiche no chiche?"
They call women "chichadoras" which I would pressume means "f--ker", but is that the same as calling a woman a whore?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I can't pronounce [r] or any sounds that are related (excluding the French "r," or Arabic غ(Inverted R in IPA) .) . I can't make that vibration of the tounge. I'm 13 and till now I can't pronounce it (although I tried.). I think that now I can't even hear people say [r] unless they vibrate there tounge for a long time or strongly. Can you help me pronounce it?
