Jag trÃ¤ffade honom pÃ¥ troika, den kÃ¤nda ryska resturangen i West End dÃ¤r jag brukade Ã¤ta lunch.Han satt vid ett bord fÃ¶r sig sjÃ¤lv och sÃ¥g melankolisk ut. NÃ¤r jag satte mig mittemot honom, kom en servitris fram och tog hans tomma kopp."fÃ¥r det vara nÃ¥got mer?" frÃ¥gade hon. Mannen svarade tvekande. "jag..jag tror jag skulle vilja ha ett glas vatten.

Title	I met him in the Troika, the famous Russian restaurant
Dịch English Translated by gamine	Target language: English I met him in the Troika, the famous Russian restaurant in the West End where I used to have lunch. He was sitting at a table alone, looking melancholy. When I sat down in front of him, a waitress came and took his empty cup. "Maybe something more?" she asked. The man hesitated and replied: "I..I think I'd like a glass of water".

	pias Tổng số bài gửi: 8113	It's not hard to understand why you missunderstood it Lene, because if it had been a little "t" at the end "sÃ¥g melankoliskt ut", (e.g. genom fÃ¶nstret), your translation would have been correct.

	casper tavernello Tổng số bài gửi: 5057	I was going to post something regarding the same propposal given by Pia about the "...melankoliskt..." (an adverb.), but I would say "tittade melankoliskt ut...".

	pias Tổng số bài gửi: 8113	How come Casper isn't a Swedish expert yet. "sÃ¥g" and "tittade" are synonyms, so I think you can use them both here.
