Title	When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me...
Text Submitted by Nooij	Source language: English When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key of life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down "happy". They told me I didn't understand the assignment and I told them they didn't understand life.
Remarks about the translation	A friend of mine once showed this quote by (as far as I know) John Lennon, and I translated it into Dutch for her and she subsequently translated it into her language. As I sent the sentence to people from other countries, they also translated it and the resulting translations have fascinated me. I'd love to see the quote in the selected/requested languages. :-) Thanks in advance for your translation!

Title	Kiam mi estis kvinjaraÄa...
Translation Esperanto Translated by alexfatt	Target language: Esperanto Kiam mi estis kvinjaraÄa, mia patrino diris Ä‰iam al mi, ke la feliÄ‰o estis la Ålosilo de la vivo. Kiam mi iris al la lernejo, ili demandis min, kio mi volis esti plenkreska. Mi skribis "feliÄ‰a". Ili diris al mi, ke mi ne komprenis la taskon, kaj mi diris al ili, ke ili ne komprenis la vivon.
