Post by gandalf »

Two words, translated into as many languages as possible:

"the Chosen" (Equivalent I thinktothe Germann die Ausgewahl or the Greek eklektos)

"hustler"

Thanks!

No, not as in prostitute: more as in con artist, or as in an individual who manages to get his way by whatever means, ethical or not.

so in French:
"the Chosen" = l'élu
"hustler" = arnaqueur (con artist) / magouilleur (manages by whatever means)

In spanish:

The Chosen: el elegido (for a man), la elegida (for a woman)
Hustler: estafador (estafadora for a woman) or buscavidas (for both)

Portuguese:
the Chosen: o escolhido (for a man), a escolhida (for a woman).
hustler: we think a word that fits your definition would be "malandro".

Sanskrit:
the Chosen: वृतः vrtah (for a man), वृता vrtā (for a woman).
we don't know any word for "hustler" in Sanskrit.
Merci de corriger notre français si nécessaire.
