      Spanisch - French - Italian


      Recommended Posts

      Hi all, I need some help with an English textbook I am trying to translate into Spanish, Italian and French. The first page shows a family holding hands. The English text is:

      Here come the father,
      here comes the mother,
      here comes the sister, 
      here comes the mother,
      hand in hand with one another. 

      I came up with a French translation like this:

      Voici le père, 
      voici la mère,
      voici la soeur,
      voice le frère,
      main dans le main avec l'autre.

      Is this correct? Or how would you (native speakers) write it?

      I need a translation in Italian and Spanish too, and although I intend to try it myself, I would also appreciate some help here.

      Okay, first I think you have a mistake in your original English text, you have "here comes the mother" twice. I think you meant "here comes the brother" the second time since that's what you have in your french translation  "voici le frère". The Spanish translation would be:

      Aquí viene el papá

      Aquí viene la mamá

      Aquí viene la hermana

      Aquí viene el hermano (You have "mother" and I think you meant "brother")

      Tomados de la mano
