    my friend,

    1. taking a potshot would yield a 25% (minimum) likelyhood of getting the right answer.

    2 waiting for an answer from this forum is just as dicey: how would you know our answers are more correct than your potshots?

    3. So, learning some basic rules and doing some of your own translation is by far the safest option in the longer run...

    This appears to be a school assignment, perhaps a test or quiz. If so, you should not be asking for the answers. If you submit someone else's work as your own, that's cheating. Bad idea.

    Asking for the answers shows the intent to cheat.
