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.

Welcome - Karibu

first = general, second = polite
if the imperatives have an specific object, like "read this", the final A becomes E

Read: soma - usome
Listen: sikia - usikie
Create: [oy, can of worms] umba - umbe (as in 'make, shape, or form' with as little spiritual subtext as possible)
Explore: fumbua - ufumbue (discover); vumbua - uvumbue (examine, uncover); zumbua - uzumbue (mostly like vumbua, not enough difference for me as non-native to pick up on)

I'll have to pass on BI (I have forgotten way to much and I never actually spoke it to begin with), but I could always further complicate the answers for German. *g*

Welcome: selamat datang
Read: membacalah
Listen: mendengarlah

Create and Explore have too many possible nuances for me to convincingly bullshit. I give up. *g*

Perhaps a better way to say these would be:

Welcome - selamat datang
Read - membaca (to read) / bacalah (imperative)
Listen - mendengar / dengarlah
Create - menciptakan
Explore - lihat-lihat (a bit colloquial, very common -- and appropriate for things like "explore this chapter" or "explore this website") / menjelajahi (formal; used mainly in the context of exploring actual geographic landscapes e.g. a desert)

Tetum:

Welcome - bem vindo
Read - lee
Listen - rona
Create -
Explore -

I totally forgot about the prefix thing. My prof would be so proud. /o\
