need well translation

[Duracell]

hi m8s, i'm loking for the best english translation;
this shall be my new signature in our forum, so i need it well translated:

original
Über Fragen, die ich nicht beantworten kann, zerbreche ich mir nicht den Kopf.
Konrad Zuse

"den Kopf zerbrechen" is a idiom seems to translate with "rack one's brains"

my 3 trials
1. I don't rack one's brains over questions i can't answer.

2. I don't rack one's brains over questions that i can't answer.

3. Over questions, which i can't answer, i don't rack one's brains.


Which is the best? or give me a new translation, please;


Happy New Year!

All your translations seem to point to the fact that you want to rack someone else's brains and not your own Well you got me racking mine

How does this sound:
I do not rack my brains over questions which I cannot answer.

You can also try
- use my grey matter
- set the gears of the mind in motion
- spend brain power
iin place of "...rack my brains...".

- LF

How about that:
Over questions, which I cannot answer, I do not break myself the head.

[Denexo]

Or using the idiom:
Over questions, which I cannot answer, I do not rack my brains.

@Denexo

Have you been using Babelfish or something similar to translate the original

PS: Don't rely on them. They can give some real weird results.

I reckon U are Trying To say

"I dont know that so I aint going to break my balls trying to answer"

[Denexo]

No Lotusfang it is that I speak three languages: Greek, English and German.
I can Greek perfect,
English I understand better that I can speak or write
and German ………..(total am arsch, nichts, scheisse).

I got (over questions, which I cannot answer, I do not break myself the head.)

That's using Magic Translater V 3.0

No you are wrong my friend.

Greek, English and German - interesting combination.

A request: I'm interested in Greek and Roman mythology (not from an academic prespective but from personal interest). Do you know of any good web-sites on the same. I had come up with a few sites using Google. However, most seemd to be incomplete (key pieces of info. were missing,...).

Btw, the site I was referring to in my earlier post, Babelfish uses Systran to do the translations. Therefore, though I didn't win the jackpot, I was close

thanks guys, till now i want to prefer:

"I do not rack my brains over questions which I cannot answer."
Konrad Zuse

i will retain the idiom and also not going vulgar/dirty, because Konrad Zuse (info link) wouldn't talked so (maybe except to his woman )
i will wait a few days to get the best honorable result;

Come on UK boys!


a Happy New Year

Greek mythologia:
http://www.asxetos.gr/viewlinks.asp?catID=149
It is in Greek but there are links in English. There are some documents about mythology theories and some about truth and facts.
Now about incomplete (key pieces of info. were missing,...).
That happens because many but many proofs and documents are stolen and are in other countries. So they using the history the way they want, keeping people in ignorance! Most discovers was there then but the?? decided that these were not good for the people and keep these secret, so it is easy to control people keeping them in ignorance!
And I am not speaking about democracy but about civilization in a quality life the time other people kill each other with rocks. I am talking about geometry, physic, algebra, philosophy and….. !

[lotusfang]

Thnx Denexo. Got some great links from the page.

True. Most people do not see the significance of ancient documents, artifacts and other archeological treasures but just how much richer they can be by selling them. As a result, many priceless pieces of history languish in the art collections of the rich and famous as mere status symbols.
