Hi!
I intend to visit you (at Ekols office) on Monday,the 7th of June at 11:00 in order to talk more to you.
Today I celebrated my birthday and we decided to open the only bottle of Tequila available. Then we noticed that it was full of water instead of Tequila. |

5 June 2010 22:49 | | | Hi Jair,
Just a couple of adjustments:
intent --> intend
the 7th of June
"in order to continue our conversation" (the meaning is fine, but not exactly what the original says) I think it should be: "to talk more with/to you"
What do you think?

6 June 2010 21:31 | | | Hi Annakonda,
Thanks for your input, but it would be a lot more useful for the evaluation if you pointed out what exactly you think could be improved CC: Annakonda | | |
6 June 2010 22:28 | | | As I said it was nothing really wrong in it but this is how I would translate it:
"Hi!
I intend to vist you at Ekols office monday the 7th of june at 11 am to talk some more to you.
I celebrated my birthday today and we
decided to open the only available bottle of tequila and discovered it was filled with water instead of tequila."
Pretty much the same, just some small adjustments.

6 June 2010 22:55 | | | Hum...actually your version has some flaws, grammatical mistakes and adds nothing that could show that it was written by an " English-speaking person", therefore we'll keep the translation as it is now.
Thanks anyway.  | | |
7 June 2010 00:13 | | | I definitely didnt mean to be rude or to cause any trouble, I thought this forum was open for discussions, Im here to learn as well as help. I will take your critique and humbly apologise. I did ask a friend of mine, born and raised in UK, to have a look at it and the reply I posted is the one he gave me. Only shows that no one is perfect, not even the native english speaking and least of all me.
Again, my sincerest apologies. |
