    German: Fussball

    Polish: Pilka nozna (the l looks like an l with a line through it and is pronounced like an english w. The z has a dot on top of it and sounds kind of like the sound after the ka and before the u in casual)

    Japanese: Sakka

    Italian - calcio
    Portuguese - futebol (i think there's an accent there, but as i don't speak the language, I'm not 100% sure)
    Dutch - voetbol
    And the French shorten it to le foot .
