sesame street רחוב סומסום - אני רוצה להיות שם

[HebrewStudent]

This is a cute little skit that plays with words. The title reads "I want to be there". Of course the irony of wanting to be there is that when you arrive "there" it become "here" so you can truly never get "there". Po v' sham (Here and there). I I can tell you how to get there but the people there l tell you that you are here not there ! A bit Abbott & Castello in a way. Misaheck em mileem.

wow, this scene is soo great - gotta love the old shows for children that actually had some depth compared to the contemporary corporate turds..

Anyways, as I do not understand hebrew (as of yet:) I was wondering if this scene is a translation and thus attainable in an english version or if it solely exists like this? If so, is anyone up for making a dubbed version?

[albAX]

I can remember the germany version, but unfortunately i cant find it :C

[alontrostanetsky]

the aristotal anti logic @ its most accurate performance

[yonataneshel]

Matsrick ma'od!! Col ha'zman she ani ohevet Rechov Soumsom, ve ani choshevet she zeh lo yihiyeh l'tafsik. Af pam l'tafsik! Zeh yoter matsrick!!

[Naamahwhatever]

מי יודע איך בגרסה בנאגלית קראו לעזרא? מעניין...

What's Ezra's name in English? He's the other one, not cookie monster...

[bcdefghijklmnopqrtuv]

There is no translation because thsi is originally made in Israel. Ezra is just Ezra. You don't translate names.

[Naamahwhatever]

I believe you though what you said is not entrirely true - Ugifletzet is Cookimonster, Bigbird is Tziporet, Grover is Kroovi and the beat goes on...Lots of names were translated into Hebrew!!!

Though is you say Ezra is Israeli, than it means there is no Enligh version for this scene? I've always thought it's copied...

[dankam1508]

@bcdefghijklmnopqrtuv Original is in English. You can see by the movement of the lips!

[kungfujiapple]

[JiBtzi]

+i like a lot a waffle covered with chocolate too! *aaa aaaa.. -Ezra, who is this? what happened kid? *i want to know what's the difference between "here" and "there" +what's the difference between "here" and "there"? -between "here" and "there"! *yes! yes! cuz i don't know what is "here", and actually, i don't even know what is "there"! -ha! +should i tell him? -why not? we should help the kid. *yes yes!

[JiBtzi]

+ok kid, we'll explain to you what's the difference between "here" and "there"

-yes Ezra, so maybe you'll go over there, ok? go. and i'll stay here.

come here, that's it. you see? Ezra is going now to there.

Hey Ezra! give us a sign!

+hey!

*hey Ezra, hello!

-so you and me are here now.

(and the next part of the translation you already have here...)

i hope you'll enjoy the video & the translation =)

have a nice day!

[MuppetDude]

Great job! Thanks again for the translation.

I'm not sure if you know this or not, but here are the monsters' American names: Cookie Monster (but you probably knew that) is Ugi, Beautiful Day Monster is Ezra, and "the kid" is Baby Monster.

[JiBtzi]

I don't know about Ezra :P but cookie monster is ugi because in hebrew a cookie=ugia :P

actually, the full name is ugi-fletzet (mifletzet=monster)

lol it looks complicated XD

and you're welcome =)

[MuppetDude]

Hmm, it appears that a part of the translation has been deleted...What happened?

[JiBtzi]

where did you look?

look on the right side of the page in the video details, there is the complete translation.

[MuppetDude]

...I feel like such an idiot. I haven't seen this clip for so long, I forgot to look there! Thanks for showing me the way.

[Jur]

With the translation it's awesome.

[Velko]
