Too bad you weren't there, have you been working hard? | | |
4 May 2008 20:37 | | | i think it should be
i'm sorry you were not there, have you been working hard?
in this way its less formal, and the original text seems not that formal to me. | | |

sampiNumber of messages: 12 | Agree, "too bad" or "I'm sorry" should be used instead of "Regrettably". | | |
6 May 2008 07:38 | | | Ik zou, ipv "regrettably" kiezen voor: "too bad"(=meer spreektaal) ligt natuurlijk aan de verhouding tussen jou en de ontvanger van deze tekst. |
