Dictionaries for Postcrossers

Do you know how to say Hello in Finnish? Maybe you already know that one, but how about Thank you for your card! in Norwegian or Goodbye in Dutch? If you wonder how to write these and other sentences, then you don't need to search any more.

Sebastian (insel) from Germany has put together an excellent resource for us: Dictionaries for Postcrossers. He compiled together the translation of several common Postcrossers sentences in 22 languages - and it keeps growing!

And if by chance your language is not there yet, he accepts new contributions so don't be shy!

Tot ziens!
