German Translation? Anyone?

Question

I'm looking up my Code of Arms and my last name's motto: Fest im handel ohne wandel -I believe it to be German motto. Can anyone translate?

Thank you,

Answer 1

"Festival in the trade without change"

Answer 2

Try Coat of Arms and Babelfish

The other answers suggest you come from a line of merchants who can't break a 20.

Answer 3

German : Fest im handel ohne wandel

English : Firmly in the trade without change

Edit: Both sources say the same thing.

Answer 4

"Firmly in trade, without change."

Fest = firm, solid

Handel = trade

ohne = without

Wandel = change

I'm not familiar with the motto though.

Edit: Ah... I didn't even think of "Fest" meaning "celebration"!

Answer 5

The direct translation is "Festival in the act without change"
