Is this more like an accusation? When looking in my dictionary (statement, assertion, allegation) are all synonyms. | | | 8 September 2009 16:09 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | Hej Pia. Well, it seemed to me that allegation would be better here. Let's ask WKN, he's on line
now and he will know better than me.
Please, wkn, can you help here. CC: wkn | | | 8 September 2009 16:24 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | | | | 8 September 2009 16:32 | | piasNumber of messages: 8113 | Nah, don't be sorry Lene! As said: I'm not native, and sometimes our words meaning isn't the same as yours, even if one think they are similar. As always, Thanks for your input. | | | 8 September 2009 16:41 | | wknNumber of messages: 332 | Re. my vote - both statement and allegation would be technically correct - I recommend statement as it seems less formal, and the "tone" of the Danish phrase is quite light, almost joking. |
