[edit] Translated from Basque Wikipedia Page

I did a quick and dirty (very dirty) translation of the Basque Wikipedia page on Etxepare, and it needs cleaning up.

  • A couple of phrases were opaque, so I just left them out.
  • I couldn't get my head around the old Basque in the poem, so I translated the Spanish translation by Koldo Izaguirre which can be found here.
  • The English translation of the Latin title of his book ("On the primitive language of the Basques") is obviously wrong. I don't speak Latin, but the Dutch Wikipedia page on Etxepare has it as something like "principles of Basque," so that's what I went with.

An edit by someone who actually speaks Basque would be nice. Madler 12:00, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
