There is no space for a tiny bit of humor in something super serious as a motto If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

hckošice 13,287 Posted February 17, 2020 #1233 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Personally, I like it. United by emotions that sounds nice and true, we all will be united by emotions during the two Tokyo weeks. For me +1 for this motto. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, we can give this motto to every sport event (basically), because those of us who watch event A are all united by emotions around it That's what I meant when saying generic. Much like horoscopes: it basically goes for anything.

SalamAkhi 284 Posted February 17, 2020 #1235 Share Posted February 17, 2020 It's a very good motto... For what it's worth = nothing Super duper generic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,189 Posted February 17, 2020 #1237 Share Posted February 17, 2020 And here are generic interpretations of the generic motto. Quote “The Games motto encapsulates the Games vision, capturing the essence of the ideas and concepts that the host city wishes to share with the world,” the organizers explained. “‘United by Emotion’ expresses the hope that the spectators, volunteers, and athletes from over 200 National Olympic Committees and the Refugee Olympic Team gathering in Tokyo this summer, as well as the billions watching on television and online across the globe, will come together and understand that there is more that unites than divides them.” #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic Liu 1,600 Posted February 17, 2020 #1238 Share Posted February 17, 2020 United by Emotion of Tokyo and Passion Connected of Pyeongchang in Chinese almost share the same translation which means Passionate Party. I guess the Korean and Japanese version are more or less the same. Maybe that's the reason why no official Japanese version motto at all. opruh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian1010 7,519 Posted February 18, 2020 #1240 Share Posted February 18, 2020 This is the hard-hitting news I come to the IOC for: “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair” - Nelson Mandela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
