THE REVIVAL ROADSHOW’S

“A TRIBUTE TO THE MUSIC OF JOHNNY CASH” FESTIVAL IN VENTURA

Do you have a special nickname for your dad or a cute phrase for him?  In our home, our children simply call their father “dad”.   Original, I know!  However, this Father’s Day I am determined to spice it up a bit and teach my children how to say “dad” in a foreign language.

Here are just a few of the translations I found for the word “dad” online:

Yiddish : tatti ; tay ; foter ; tateh

Spanish : papá ; viejo ; tata

Swahili : baba ; mzazi

Norwegian : pappa ; far

Mandarin Chinese : baba

Latin : pater ; papa ; atta

Korean: abonim, aboji, appa

Italian : babbo

Hungarian : apa ; apu ; papa ; édesapa

Czech : táta, otec

Arabic : babba ; yebba ; abbi (classical)

Afrikaans : vader

Which translation do you prefer?  Either way, it’s time that our family gets busy and start making plans for Father’s Day weekend.

One of the top Father’s Day events in Southern California is the 6th annual ROADSHOW REVIVAL’S “A Tribute To the Music of Johnny Cash!”
