Hi evulitsa

I don't speak Greek, but one of my jobs here is to make sure the English of translations is gramatically and linguistically correct. After that, I will set a poll to see if others agree with your translation. Just a few suggestions for this one to make the English sound more natural:


Why weren't you available for a (whole)week, while we met again after about 20 years? JOSEPH, you haven't changed at all.
You still look (as)young and handsome as you were.
We got old, it doesn't matter, we don't see each other, that's why there are no pictures of me.
I hope you do well with your beautiful kids which they seem to be in your pictures.

If you agree with my suggestions, please edit your translation and leave me a note here so I can set a poll. If you don't agree, please let me know why not!
Thanks!

Corrected 'which' into 'who' according to Lilian's suggestion

Hi Lein

Sorry, due to lack of time I didn't post my comments.

Why did you disappear for a whole week, when we met again after about 20 years? J., you haven't changed at all.
You still look young and beautiful (feminine adj.) as you were.
We got old, let's not talk about it (lit. "let it go),we are not fine-looking anymore (lit.we are not to be seen/presentable), that's why there are no pictures of me.
I wish you do well with those beautiful kids in your pictures who seem to be yours (lit. with your beautiful kids that must be the ones in the picture).

Done
Thank you!
