Yeah so Im really bored this morning, so I decided to translate "the tragically hip" into other languages, some are quite funny. I couldnt do any asian languages because I dont have the language packs, and they wouldnt display properly, sorry asia! Here are the ones I found using the internet:

die tragisch Hüfte-German
tragicamente l'anca-Italian
трагично вальма-Russian
tràgica o hip-Portugese
trágico la cadera-Spanish
de tragisch heup-Dutch
το τραγικά ισχίο-Greek
tragiquement la hanche-French
den tragiske hoften-Norwegian
ten tragicznie biodro-Polish
Den Tragically Höft-Swedish
Tragically Kiulukka-Finnish

Определителен член Трагичен Бедро-Bulgarian
belgili tanımlık Tragically kalça-Turkish
A Tragikus Csípő-Hungarian
The Tragically Mjöðm-Icelandic

Still, nothing beats the bastardized Quebecois: Le Hip Tragique.

Hahahhaa.. that's great... it translated hip as in body part... :lol:
The French translation, Tragiquement-La-Hanche, sounds like an electoral riding in Quebec.

"Mr. Downie, MP for Tragiquement-la-Hanche, was quoted as saying, 'It gets so sticky down here.'"
