I just assumed that they were a number of actions, and I translated them
with words that "just felt right" in Afrikaans... some of my
translations are similar to the English, and some are not.
msgid "Zap"
msgstr "Klits"
msgid "Whack"
msgstr "Kletter"
msgid "Torch"
msgstr "Brander"
msgid "Smooch"
msgstr "Soenie"
msgid "Hug"
msgstr "Liefie"
msgid "Slap"
msgstr "Klapper"
msgid "Goose"
msgstr "Slurp"
msgid "High-five"
msgstr "Vatvyf"
msgid "Punk"
msgstr "Zoer"
msgid "Raspberry"
msgstr "Kerrie"
An additional problem is that these things are verbed in the text, so
make sure this can be done in your language (in Afrikaans its easy).
