Translation Request
Hello everyone, Happy New Year!!
Please see attached - this is a postcard dated circa 1915 from Germany.
Is there anyone out there who might be able to translate this for me?
Many thanks, Christine

Hi @ChristineKollwitz. The best place to get this translated is the group. I'd suggest posting again there. Good luck, and Happy New Year!

Another option is to have an Artificial Intelligence tool like ChatGPT translate it for you which is what I did. This is what ChatGPT thinks it says. Always take what an AI tool provides with some skepticism:
Printed Text:"Ein gutes neues Jahr!"
(A Happy New Year!)"Der feldgraue Weihnachtsmann"
(The Field-Grey Santa Claus)"Karte 6: Parole 1917: Sieg und Frieden!"
(Card 6: Slogan 1917: Victory and Peace!)Handwritten Text (Transcription & Translation):

@Ce3073, for future requests, may I suggest the Austro-Hungarian Empire Research group? (It'll still be me responding, most likely, but we won't be bugging people who aren't interested.)
(And this one's all in Latin…)

Later records tend toward "Lelkes", which is a word meaning "enthusiastic", but the actual origin of the surname is a diminutive of Lőrinc = Lawrence.)
