        Thank you Hank.

        I'm learning German now and trying to translate as much as I can but some writing proves to be challenging to read.

          You're welcome.

          There's an understatement....once you have a good grasp of German, then you can start working on the older script(s). Some of it I can get, some not so much. What I do is look for words I can recognize. Once I have them, I'll take the letters from them, and see which of the unrecognizable words I can plug them into, thereby giving me sort of a hint at what the words might be. With context and some creativity, I can do fairly well. I had trouble at first with "gemeinsamen" in your text, but did the "insert letters" thing and figured it out.

                    I could use some help with translating this - the beginning is in French, but the handwriting is so hard to read, I can't even be certain if the second "paragraph" is also French I would also love to know what the name is.

                    So far, all I have is

                    "je t'aime aujourd'hui plus que ...et....que demain"

                      " Je t'aime aujourdhui plus che hier et moins che demain !" Today I love you more than yesterday

                      and less than tomorrow.

                      "Darf ich Dir eins von meinen Bildern widmen? Sieht sonst so leer und lieblos aus. Peterle".

                      Do you allow to dedicate you one of my pictures. If not it looks so empty and loveless/unloving.

                      Peterle.

                      I hope I did not make too much mistakes.

                            It is written on an engineer certificate.

                              It's the names of 4 Doctoral Engineers, and the areas they are responsible for. The top one, for instance, has a specialty of the German Language.
