Català: Una morrena són els materials i sediments barrejats amb neu que són empesos per la llengua d'una glacera. Solen ser fragments de roca, grava o argila.
Dansk: En moræne (På ældre dansk en brævold, oprindeligt fra sydfransk dialekt, første led af det franske ord "moraine", egl. "rullesten, løse sten") er jord og løse klippestykker, der er blevet efterladt af en gletsjer. En moræne er en blanding af ler, sand, grus, og sten.
Deutsch: Moränen sind die Schuttablagerungen, die von Gletschern bei ihrer Bewegung mitbewegt oder aufgehäuft werden.
English: A moraine is any glacially formed accumulation of unconsolidated glacial debris (soil and rock) which can occur in currently glaciated and formerly glaciated regions, such as those areas acted upon by a past ice age. This debris may have been plucked off the valley floor as a glacier advanced or it may have fallen off the valley walls as a result of frost wedging or landslide. Moraines may be composed of debris ranging in size from silt-sized glacial flour to large boulders. The debris is typically sub-angular to rounded in shape. Moraines may be on the glacier’s surface or deposited as piles or sheets of debris where the glacier has melted. Moraines may also occur when glacier- or iceberg-transported rocks fall into the sea as the ice melts.
Español: Una morrena o morena es una cordillera o manto de till (material glaciar no estratificado) depositada cerca de un glaciar.
Français : Une moraine est un amas de débris rocheux (appelé aussi till), érodé et transporté par un glacier ou par une nappe de glace. Certaines moraines sont observables au cours de leur transport, sur ou dans la glace, d'autres sont déposées sur le sol sous-jacent, traces d'anciens glaciers : les matériaux qui se détachent des versants de la montagne sont véhiculés par le glacier et déposés lorsque celui-ci fond, généralement à la même altitude, d'où un empilement rocheux.
Íslenska: Jökulgarðar eru hárestar garðar myndaðir af jökulurði.
Italiano: Una morena è una particolare forma di accumulo di sedimenti, costituito dai detriti rocciosi trasportati da un ghiacciaio nel suo lento scorrimento verso valle.
Nederlands: Een morene is een landvorm gevormd door een gletsjer of ijskap, waarbij het duidelijk herkenbare ruggen in het landschap betreft. Morenes kunnen enorm in formaat variëren; zo zijn sommige morenecomplexen in Noord-Amerika tientallen meters hoog en kilometers lang, maar kleinere types zoals De Geer-morenes zijn slechts een paar meter hoog en meestal enkele tientallen meters lang.
Norsk bokmål: En morene er usortert løsmateriale av stein, avsatt av en isbre.
Norsk nynorsk: Morene er usortert lausmateriale avsett av ein isbre. Omgrepet kan visa både til slike landformer skapt av brear, og til jordartane inni dei, morenemasse eller morenematerial. Dette materialet er blitt teke med av ein bre og kan innehalda leire, silt, sand, steinar og større blokker.
Português: Uma morena ou moreia é um amontoado de pedras que os glaciares, ao descer, vão acumulando dos lados e na sua parte inferior.
