Hi kafetzou, I know that, but if I'm right it should have been rejected according to our rules and not even translated.

Or at least it should have been set in stand-by, and we admins should have asked an expert in German to edit.

But the translation request probably passed through when we were sleeping or busy elsewhere.

Lene's right, according to our rule #[6] the text is not acceptable to translation.

I think we need some help from our German experts to edit the original before evaluating the translation.

Girls?

Kafetzou is right, that's the way it should have been in the first place.

Dear friends,
I am not agree with you. Why do you try to use "wieder,again" here ?
It means for me; " The next time (when)I visit Munich, I'll definitely be happy to see you.(or look you up)"
Because, as you know, "sich an etw weiden" means "to be happy".

MerdoÄŸan, please see Marco E.'s comment above. I've never heard "sich an etw weiden". It's clearly a typo (typing mistake), as there were several others in the original text.

'I will definitely ask for you again' instead of 'look you up again'. But only my opinion.

I don't think so, because it says "bei Ihnen anfragen". Otherwise, I think it would be "nach Ihnen fragen".

I find this one quite difficult. 'Ihnen' can be the polite word for 'you'. Honestly, you can be right to, Kafetzou.

Ihnen is the polite form of you, and that's how I translated it. How else could it be interpreted?

I think it's fairly straightforward. It's just that the person, probably writing on an iPhone or something like that, didn't bother to proofread what s/he had written.

Hi again. Have checked again. 'bei Ihnen anfragen' and 'nach Ihnen anfragen' can signify the same thing but I suppose there is a tiny difference and my brain just can't find it yet. Honestly, don't know anymore. Supose there are other members who will vote. If I'm wrong you'll have my green voice. Funny discussion. Don't want to bother you, be sure of that. Just giving my opinion which can be wrong. Just trying to do my best.

Hi Maybe, thanks for your input. BTW you don't have to notify everyone about your vote. We are following the discussion, OK?

Heidrun, I think I'll ask for your opinion here. Could you vote at the poll and make any comment about Kafetzou's translation?

Thanks in advance.
