OK, the subject was probably a little confusing, but it's really easy.
Anywho, my hubby is turning 41 tomorrow, 9/30, and I would like to make him a cake with the word "Old" on it in as many languages as I can icon_twisted.gif . I know he is not really old, he's still a spring chicken, but I can tease him can't I???! (I still have a long while before I get to his age icon_lol.gif )
Anyways, any and all will be appreciated thumbs_up.gif .

icon_smile.gif) No, it 's pronounced "staro", but this is a wrong version of the word "old" for this case, the right one is "ÓÔÁÒÙÊ" and it is pronounced "staryi".

babelfish is a nice place to get transulations too. Italian was already there so I have nothing else.

Sounds fun though.

Some New Zealand maori words ... koroua - 'old', Kaumatua = 'old man' (this one is used in a respectful tone), 'koro' = grandfather

Hope this isn't too late!

Too funny!!! icon_lol.gificon_lol.gif Sometimes senile and senator could be used interchangibly, couldn't they?!?! icon_twisted.gif
