Hi Nikatang

In polite English we say "May I" and not "Can I", but as I don't understand any Bulgarian, I am asking for a community opinion, so I will see whether it should be in the polite form or not.

"Maybe even a slice of bread?"(after the romanian translation)

Hi Freya

Is the Romanian translated from the Bulgarian? If so, since it has been evaluated, then this version must be wrong.

Thanks for your help, I'm awaiting the results of my poll to validate, but your comments are already of some help.

Hi all,

As this is a "meaning only" I think it's fine like this. I'm probably just nitpicking

I've validated it as it is.

Thanks everyone for your help

Hi Tantine. I have written there, in the remarks field that I have accepted the Romanian translation based on the English translation, because no one was capable to give me an opinion about the corectitude of the translation. The remark of Freya is based on the Romanian translation (which does not have any connection with the English one). The text was translated first from Bulgarian to Romanian and anamaria adapted the text. Probably.

Hi Iepurica

Are the two versions (Romanian & English) very différent?

If so, maybe I should have waited a while before validating

Maybe I can unvalidate and repoll to see if any Bulgarian speakers can tell us which is the correct translation?
