Er, out of the three languages that Jeff wanted, two of them use alphabets very similar to the "English" alphabet.
Phonetically, English isn't bad. At the very least, it's superior to Japanese.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Keep it simple, JeffK. Here in Argentina, the expression "What the fuck!?" would be "Qu� carajo!?". So, that's the Spanish version.
As for "Left-Wing liberal nut", a very Argentinian version of it would be "Loco Zurdo Progresista". But both expressions are maybe too local for your taste.
In svenska, "what the fuck?" is mostly "Vad i helvete?", where "helvete" means "hell". See, in our language, saying "what the hell" is a heavier curse than saying it in english.
We don't use our words for "fuck" like in english. "That fucking idiot" is instead "Den j�vla/dj�vla/j�dra idioten", so it's religiously toned. "Dj�vul(en)" is the devil, obviously.
Although we can insert "fucking" in swedish sentences all the same, speaking swenglish. At my work, for instance. "Jag jobbar" means "I am working", but instead we often say "Jag workar".
"Warning: Driver is insane" would be "Varning: F�raren �r galen". A larger but more advanced word would also be "sinnessjuk", (sinne=mind, sjuk=sick). "Galen" is the standard word but is weaker, like crazy or mad.

I'm not a big fan of wranglers personally, but they can look really cool with the proper work. I don't think it'll be easy, but if you can pull it off, it's probably worth it.
