    Wenn Sie mit einem Mann in einer Sprache sprechen, die er versteht, geht ihm das in den Kopf. Wenn du mit ihm in seiner Sprache sprichst, geht ihm das ins Herz.

    si le hablas a un hombre en un idioma que entiende, se le sube a la cabeza. si le hablas en su idioma, eso llega a su corazón.

    si vous parlez à un homme dans une langue qu'il comprend, cela lui va à la tête. si vous lui parlez dans sa langue, cela lui va au coeur.

    se parli a un uomo in una lingua che capisce, gli viene in testa. se gli parli nella sua lingua, questo va al suo cuore.

    jeśli rozmawiasz z mężczyzną w języku, który rozumie, to trafia do jego głowy. jeśli rozmawiasz z nim w jego języku, trafia do jego serca.
