Help, friends list?

[thefourthvine]

I need translations (in any language - I will totally welcome things like Elvish and Klingon, too) for the following five words:

Welcome

Read

Listen

Create

Explore

Any bilingual/multilingual people out there who like to help me out? You'll get - okay. You'll just get thanks. But they will be very sincere thanks.

My suspicion (can you tell this is for a work thing? Because I have no idea what's going on OMG) is that these words are going on signs, to indicate overall multi-cultural welcomingness. So, you know, it will say, for example, "Welcome," but it will say that in many languages. So, out of curiosity, which form would you put on a sign?

"Welcome" is just "Wilkommen", no different forms, but I have to admit that I can't think of a context where you'd need a sign that simply says "Listen." I mean, "Press this button and then listen to the announcement", maybe, but just "Listen"? Hm.

In any case, German has two forms of address, the formal and the informal one, so it would make a difference if you're telling a friend or a child to listen ("Hör zu!") or a stranger (Hören Sie zu!").

to add on to this; if it's signage, it's most likely to be done in the Formal.
