How To: Learn the Boy Scout Motto in different languages

In America, the Boy Scout motto is "Be Prepared" however, in other countries this is not always the case. There is a Wikipedia chart which lists the mottos from all over the world and translates them. Here are some of the more unusual ones:
Cape Verde: "Alert."
Hungary: "Be on the breach."
Poland: "Watch!"
Slovenia: "With nature to a better person."
Thailand: "Better to die than to lie." (terrifying, I know)
Ukraine: "With Strength! With Beauty! With Care! With Speed!"
