| Leon you should provide the translation! I, myself, understood what you've said. You said "giorgio, do you understand what you hear from the radio?" |

| Yeah I'll translate next time, but I thought it was OK to write a short phrase or sentence in Greek or Turkish without a translation?! |

No, you were right, garbitsch, but I mean I'll write translations in the future.
Crash, I must be confusing myself with another forum were short sentences or phrases are allowed in the languages other than the lingua franca. Oh dear, my poor little YOUNG, TEENAGE overbulged mind. |

can someone please provide a proper translation, as imo the sentence was: Giorgio, do you understand what is said in the radio? |

actually ,without being a greek teacher, it could even be that the sentence is wrong itself.
milao - speak
leo - say
therefoe the sentence should have been
katalaveneis oti lene sto radio ?
the translation would then be
do you understand what (they) say on the radio ?
"what is said" would be : "oti legetai" if i am not mistaken. but thats already kind of complecated :wink:
a greek teacher would be helpful here...
well done city and garbitsch |
