All right, I'll translate it (I don't think it's fair to post it here
without translation) - but remember, I am just the translator, I did not
post the message! :-)
"Charles V said that French is for talking diplomacy, Spanish for talking
with God, and German for talking with animals."
He then added in another message that he forgot to say that Italian was for
talking love.
My apologies to Pedro for blowing his cover, but, while anything goes on
this list, it is supposed to be understood by all.
By the way, your auto-translator did a pretty good job considering "e"
means "and" without an accent mark, but it means "is" with one.
Another by the way, while we're at it: My dear Pedro, it's "lo spagnolo,"
not "il spagnolo." (That's because it starts with "sp").
Ciao,
Adam
