Esti o dansatoare minunata. Noroc!
Beautiful is indeed "frumoasa" in the first instance, but I think you meant wonderful. You wish her luck for her upcoming performance, and you encourage her by telling her she is wondeful, so she must believe in herself and be sure she will have success. "Frumoasa" expresses the physical beauty. If this is what you wanted to say, I agree with the former opinion expressed by the other 2 translators.

I translated beautiful in it\'s most common meaning, as in \"beautiful girl\". I hope this is what you meant

Eşti o dansatoare frumoasă . Baftă!

Eşti o frumoasă dansatoare. Mult noroc!
1st version more friendly
2nd version more more distant, but still accurate.
In case of a ballet dancer:
Eşti o frumoasă balerină. Mult noroc!

corin
: I can't see the second letter in "Eşti". It should be an "s" with a comma underneath. If you can't type it you can use a plain "s". The same goes for the "ă" (you can use "a").

To be able to see correct Romanian special characters in MS IE6+, you'll probably have to set your browser in View-Encoding to "Auto Select" or to "Central European"

Esti o dansatoare minunata. Mult succes !
If you want to wish her "Good luck" before a performance - "succes", or "mult succes" seems to be more appropriate in Romanian.

Esti o dansatoare minunata. Bafta!
First part of the answer is not my merit I know. What I know (as an actor) is when you go up on stage you hate people wishing you "Succes" or "Noroc"! that means stright "Go to hell!" What you hope hearing is rather "Bafta!" or "Baftoi!" (if you prefere a more familiar level). The choice is yours. Good luck!

: This is a good translation.I also like the way he explains the difference between "noroc" and "bafta".However "baftoi" is seldom used.It is too familiar.

You're perfectly right about "baftoi" and I've tried to say the same. Thanks a lot.
