Literally, "water man" is correct. But I would translate it a bit more loosely as "water bearer".

Most, if not all, names of zodiac signs in Dutchare are literal translations from Latin. But while most people understand that Leo means Lion, how many know Cancer is Latin for crab?

No worries. I was hesitant to post both comments, knowing they might be misinterpreted.

Oh, absolutely. Was hoping for a "I am all Hamas on this blessed day".

For the ones not in the know:

We're younger than the US though.

The reason there is a difference in how much light is reflected, is because the moon is in a different position. During a new moon, it's on the day side of the earth (so in between the sun and the earth) while during a full moon, it's on the night side.

So there could theoretically be a gravitational effect, although I don't think it would impact anyone's sleep.

If anyone is noticing a difference in sleep quality, it's most likely indeed to do with the amount of light.

bc they haven't had as terrible of a racist past as the US

You do know the Holocaust happened in Europe right?

Other than that, I do agree with you. Europe is still very racist but we like to think we're not. Just because it's less talked about, doesn't mean it's not there.

I agree with you that 20kg for a woman is not thát crazy, even for a beginner. But the "woman's bar" is also very popular, which is only 15kg. I think the main reason many women prefer this one is because the thinner bar is easier to grip.

Do you think farmers should not use any tractors and pick their crops using manual labour?

That would also create a lot of jobs.
