"Best regards from an old district of sunny Paris".

Hi Aneta! Thanks for the bridge, but...
Where is the conjugated verb?

Oh, there isn't indeed. But, is this possible to make an exception to this our rule for wishes that are very often expressed without conjugated verbs?

If we do this, it is opened door to all kind of requests that would have no conjugated verb at all, some would be greetings messages, some other thankful messages, and the like, result would be that exceptions would extend to all expressions that are not using a conjugated verb, and the rule #[4] would be broken at any time.

Someone who really reads the rules manages to use a conjugated verb such as "I send you", I wish you", and so on, the point is that very few requesters read the rules before submitting their text, most of the time because the text is ready to be submitted before they read the rules and they don't want to bother with adding a conjugated verb afterwards. (talking about users that are submitting texts in their mother tongue)

I know, many texts on postcards are as short as possible, but if we allow texts for postcards, and reject other texts that have no verb, it will be a real mess to find out which one we've got to accept and which one we've got to reject.

Following the rules as strictly as possible does that our admin's (and power-cucumer's) job is much easier and clearer, moreover this doesn't require a huge effort to add a verb to these kinds of requests (still talking about texts that are submitted in the requester's mother tongue)

So as the requester is Polish, could you please ask her to add one conjugated verb to her text, so that we can accept it to translation?

Thanks a lot!

Ok. I understood and edited the request.

So, the bridge now will be:
"Best regards/cordial greelings from an old district of sunny Paris sends..."

Sorry, my comp is very low today.

Thank you Aneta!

(I translated "I'm sending you my warmest greetings from an old quarter of sunny Paris" into French, is that fine this way?)

Not exactly, Francky, because I added a verb in 3rd person.


for example: Francky "sends cordial greetings from an old quarter of sunny Paris" to Aneta, hehe!

I'm afraid this can't be translated into French, we always use subjects with conjugated verbs, and when one's sending a postcard, usually one uses the first person singular (or 1st person plural if it's a couple of persons who are sending the postcard : either "je t'adresse" or "nous t'adressons"

Ok, so I will edit it once again and put the verb in first person.

ÅšlÄ™ = I'm sending

Acceptée.
