German term or phrase: heimisch / heimatlos
Bonjour,

La dernière:

„Heimisch in der Welt wird man nur durch Arbeit; wer nicht arbeitet, ist heimatlos.“ (Auerbach)

Mais là, je ne suis pas du tout sûre qu'il y ait une traduction, donc si quelqu'un ose se lancer dans une traduction...!

Merci d'avance!

Explanation:
d'accord avec "enraciné" pour heimisch.
je propose "sans patrie" pour heimatlos, voir le lien vers un article de libération sur la minorité russe en Estonie, qualifiée de "sans patrie".
